The Chiefs kept it disciplined and banked a B+.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Domani Jackson; the Chiefs did not wait, grabbing him 25 spots ahead at the Round 5 slot. No fireworks, but a solid B+.

Hurst falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Adding Xavier Hutchinson by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.28 · Pick 28 · Avieon Terrell · CB · rank 16
In pick 28 they get a sticky cover corner, and a steal at that. Need was not the driver here.
R1.29 · Pick 29 · Dillon Thieneman · S · rank 35
In the 29th pick they get a centerfielder for the defense. More want than need.
R2.8 · Pick 40 · Omar Cooper Jr. · WR · rank 34
A tidy little value on Omar Cooper Jr. in the 40th overall pick, a step better than break-even. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R2.27 · Pick 59 · Germie Bernard · WR · rank 59
No drama and no debate, Germie Bernard went about where he belonged in slot 59. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R3.10 · Pick 74 · Christen Miller · DL · rank 56
Somehow Christen Miller was still sitting there in Round 3, Pick 10, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. It fills a real need, too.
R4.9 · Pick 109 · Ted Hurst · WR · rank 87
They robbed the room for Ted Hurst here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R5.11 · Pick 151 · Domani Jackson · CB · rank 176
They talked themselves into Domani Jackson at slot 151, and the board did not agree. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
R5.29 · Pick 169 · Ephesians Prysock · CB · rank 190
Ephesians Prysock at No. 169 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
R5.36 · Pick 176 · Beau Stephens · OG · rank 159
Beau Stephens at pick No. 176 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R6.29 · Pick 210 · Chase Roberts · WR · rank 213
No edge and no loss on Chase Roberts in the 210th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R7.22 · Pick 238 · TJ Hall · CB · rank 222
A slide stopped in the 238th overall pick, with TJ Hall worth more than the price. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
