The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named tight end, a need the Chiefs walked right past. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The back end got a real overhaul.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.9 · Pick 9 · Mansoor Delane · CB · rank 8
In the Round 1 slot they get a potential shutdown corner. Need was not the driver here.
R1.29 · Pick 29 · KC Concepcion · WR · rank 25
KC Concepcion at the 29th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
