The Chiefs lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. The cost of the Jefferson reach is exactly the players who went right after him. That is a tight end worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.
Hit on Cooper Beebe and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.
Pick-by-Pick
A conviction pick on Cooper Beebe at the Round 2 slot that the board grades a round light. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Isaac Guerendo at the 107th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
No drama and no debate, Nehemiah Pritchett went about where he belonged in slot 133. It adds depth where they could use a little.
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Luke McCaffrey. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Jordan Jefferson at the 172nd overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
They did well to land Ty'Ron Hopper in Round 6, Pick 9, just ahead of his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Erick All slid further than he should have, and pick 219 is lovely value for the tight end. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
