There is a lot to like until you notice wide receiver is still a hole. The Chiefs never got to the one that mattered most. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.
Landing Sadiq that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They went 3 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.
Pick-by-Pick
In the 9th overall pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
In slot 29 they get a mismatch in the passing game at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Caleb Banks in pick No. 40 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
