Kansas City Chiefs

More right than wrong for the Chiefs, and a B- to prove it.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Chiefs took Logan Fano a full 82 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

They will regret leaving offensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. However the rest shakes out, Burks at that price is a win they earned.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.9 · Pick 9 · Arvell Reese · LB · rank 7
In slot 9 they get a green-dot type in the middle. A real need, handled.
R1.29 · Pick 29 · Sonny Styles · LB · rank 21
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Sonny Styles at No. 29 is the proof. A need, and now a little less of one.
R2.8 · Pick 40 · Kenyon Sadiq · TE · rank 19
Kenyon Sadiq at Round 2, Pick 8 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R3.10 · Pick 74 · Keionte Scott · CB · rank 60
Nice patience on Keionte Scott, who had no business lasting to the 74th overall pick. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R4.9 · Pick 109 · Deion Burks · WR · rank 85
Somehow Deion Burks was still sitting there in pick No. 109, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R5.8 · Pick 148 · Kaytron Allen · RB · rank 146
They took Kaytron Allen at par in pick 148, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
R5.29 · Pick 169 · Reggie Virgil · WR · rank 165
Nothing to complain about; Reggie Virgil went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R5.36 · Pick 176 · Logan Fano · DE-EDGE · rank 258
Value said wait; Logan Fano in No. 176 says they were not listening. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R6.29 · Pick 210 · Diego Pavia · QB · rank 238
They left a pile of value on the table to take Diego Pavia this early at the Round 6 slot. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
