Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Chiefs never addressed interior defensive lineman, and it is the kind of gap that lingers.

The Bowen pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The cost of the Peal reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Trey'Dez Green
In the 24th pick they get a security blanket over the middle. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick55 Rnd2 Kewan Lacy
Kewan Lacy at Round 2, Pick 23 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick78 Rnd3 Koi Perich
A reach on Koi Perich in pick No. 78; the board had better options right there. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick88 Rnd3 Chris Peal
They went early on Chris Peal in No. 88, and the value did not follow. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick125 Rnd4 Whit Weeks
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Whit Weeks. The roster fit checks out.
Pick138 Rnd4 Amare Thomas
Amare Thomas in the Round 4 slot is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick163 Rnd5 Devin McCuin
Devin McCuin in slot 163 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick191 Rnd6 Eli Bowen
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Eli Bowen at pick 191. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick210 Rnd6 Blake Frazier
Nice patience on Blake Frazier, who had no business lasting to pick 210. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick256 Rnd7 Dylan Raiola
The board had cheaper options than Dylan Raiola at pick No. 256, and it noticed. It fills a real need, too.
