When a board-topper like Jordan Hancock slides to the 224th pick, you do not overthink it, and the Chiefs did not. No fireworks, but a solid B.
That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Reaching for Bond left real value on the table behind him. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick-by-Pick
In the 32nd pick they get a go-to option on the outside, even if it was a touch early. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Good price on Ajani Cornelius in pick No. 64, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Steal is underselling it; Ashton Gillotte at the Round 3 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Jabbar Muhammad at pick 96 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Circle this one: Oscar Delp at Round 4, Pick 32 is a fall that decides a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
You do not let a wide receiver like Tre Harris reach slot 160 and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Wyatt Milum at No. 193 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Jordan Hancock in the 224th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
