The Jaylan Ford pick is the one that will follow the Chiefs into the fall. They took him 32 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

Leaving tight end unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Landing Fisher that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The trade work was a quiet net positive.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.8 · Pick 40 · Xavier Legette · WR · rank 38
No edge and no loss on Xavier Legette in the 40th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R3.1 · Pick 65 · Kiran Amegadjie · OT · rank 66
Kiran Amegadjie at Round 3, Pick 1 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.15 · Pick 79 · Dominick Puni · OT · rank 89
Dominick Puni in No. 79 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R3.32 · Pick 95 · Khyree Jackson · CB · rank 95
Khyree Jackson at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R4.9 · Pick 109 · Maason Smith · DT · rank 111
Maason Smith in the 109th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
R4.32 · Pick 132 · Blake Fisher · OT · rank 119
Blake Fisher at pick No. 132 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R5.3 · Pick 139 · Justin Eboigbe · DL-EDGE · rank 148
They paid up for Justin Eboigbe at the 139th pick when waiting would have done the job. It fills a real need, too.
R5.6 · Pick 142 · Tommy Eichenberg · LB · rank 145
By-the-book stuff, Tommy Eichenberg at slot 142 squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R5.23 · Pick 159 · Luke McCaffrey · WR · rank 149
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Luke McCaffrey at the 159th overall pick is the proof. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R5.30 · Pick 166 · Cody Schrader · RB · rank 174
A premium they did not need to pay, Cody Schrader a notch or two before his time. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R5.37 · Pick 173 · Jaylan Ford · LB · rank 205
They reached into another round for Jaylan Ford, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The roster fit checks out.
R7.20 · Pick 240 · Bub Means · WR · rank 245
Bub Means in Round 7, Pick 20 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
