The Chiefs did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Tyler Warren fell into the 133rd overall pick. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.
The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick-by-Pick
In pick No. 32 they get a building block for the line at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Steal is underselling it; Omarion Hampton at No. 64 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like T.J. Sanders reach pick 68 and blink. They did not. A need, and now a little less of one.
Elic Ayomanor in the 96th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
They barely believed it either: Tyler Warren still on the board at slot 133. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
