Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Chiefs.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Quintayvious Hutchins, 40 picks early at the 148th overall pick. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. However the rest shakes out, Coleman Jr. at that price is a win they earned. They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Keldric Faulk
In the 9th overall pick they get a problem off the edge at fair value.
Pick29 Rnd1 Kenyon Sadiq
In slot 29 they get a mismatch in the passing game, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick40 Rnd2 Zion Young
Zion Young in pick 40 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick74 Rnd3 Jonah Coleman
Jonah Coleman at No. 74 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick109 Rnd4 Caden Curry
Caden Curry at the 109th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick148 Rnd5 Quintayvious Hutchins
Quintayvious Hutchins at Round 5, Pick 8 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick169 Rnd5 Kevin Coleman Jr.
They read the board right and Kevin Coleman Jr. was the payoff at No. 169. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick176 Rnd5 Ar'maj Reed-Adams
A tidy bit of business in the 176th overall pick, where Ar'maj Reed-Adams graded well above the range. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick210 Rnd6 Keyshaun Elliott
They took Keyshaun Elliott at par in the Round 6 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
