The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named quarterback, a need the Chiefs walked right past.
The Barner pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. Mims falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick-by-Pick
In slot 32 they get a building block for the line at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
They jumped the gun on Xavier Worthy, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
A quiet steal in the 95th overall pick: Trey Benson for less than the market said. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
A reach for AJ Barner in the 159th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
They did well to land Khristian Boyd in pick No. 173, just ahead of his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
A straight-up fair deal on LaDarius Henderson at Round 7, Pick 32, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
