Kansas City Chiefs

The Chiefs cashed the board's mistake on Muhammad: B+.

Thirty-one other rooms let Jabbar Muhammad slide, and the Chiefs were the ones holding the card at the 193rd overall pick. Highway robbery. Good, not great, and the B+ says as much.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

Adding Gervon Dexter Sr. by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.1 · Pick 33 · Will Johnson · CB · rank 4
A cornerback of that caliber at slot 33 is the definition of value, full stop. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R2.32 · Pick 64 · Malaki Starks · S · rank 11
Malaki Starks at No. 64 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R3.5 · Pick 69 · Kenneth Grant · DT · rank 31
Kenneth Grant at pick 69 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R3.32 · Pick 96 · Tez Johnson · WR · rank 60
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Tez Johnson in Round 3, Pick 32, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R4.32 · Pick 128 · Oscar Delp · TE · rank 72
They robbed the room for Oscar Delp here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.20 · Pick 148 · Wyatt Milum · OT · rank 110
Circle this one: Wyatt Milum at pick No. 148 is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R5.32 · Pick 160 · Tre Harris · WR · rank 69
The board fumbled Tre Harris all the way to the 160th overall pick, and they scooped it up. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R7.1 · Pick 193 · Jabbar Muhammad · CB · rank 27
They will replay Jabbar Muhammad at the 193rd pick for years; that is how good the value is. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
R7.32 · Pick 224 · Rylie Mills · DT · rank 121
Steal is underselling it; Rylie Mills at Round 7, Pick 32 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
