Somebody took the Chiefs to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it. It nets out a thoroughly average C-.

They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it. They are betting Williams proves the room right and everyone else wrong. It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.

So much rides on Malik Nabers that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.4 · Pick 4 · Malik Nabers · WR · rank 4
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Malik Nabers. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R3.32 · Pick 95 · DeWayne Carter · DT · rank 101
They paid sticker price for DeWayne Carter in the 95th overall pick, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R4.33 · Pick 133 · Kalen King · CB · rank 139
They took Kalen King at par in the 133rd pick, which is nothing to complain about. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R5.22 · Pick 158 · Mason McCormick · OT · rank 159
Mason McCormick in No. 158 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R5.36 · Pick 172 · Isaiah Williams · WR · rank 185
Isaiah Williams at pick No. 172 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
