The rest of the league had time to spare on C.J. Hanson; the Chiefs did not wait, grabbing him 90 spots ahead at pick 173.
The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver.
Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.
Pick-by-Pick
In the 32nd overall pick they get an anchor for the offensive line. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
They went early on Marshawn Kneeland in the 64th pick, and the value did not follow. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
They jumped the gun on Maason Smith, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A need, and now a little less of one.
Tommy Eichenberg at No. 132 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
A straight-up fair deal on Dylan Laube at Round 5, Pick 23, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
They left a pile of value on the table to take C.J. Hanson this early at slot 173. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
They reached into another round for Decamerion Richardson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
