Kansas City Chiefs

The Chiefs lost the trade table, and the D+ tells the story.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Chiefs, and the value they bled adds up to real damage.

For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Carson pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback. The cost of the Ford reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

However the rest shakes out, Eboigbe at that price is a win they earned.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and quarterback is still a hole.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.32 · Pick 32 · Ladd McConkey · WR · rank 32
In Round 1, Pick 32 they get a matchup problem out wide. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · Kiran Amegadjie · OT · rank 65
A straight-up fair deal on Kiran Amegadjie at pick No. 58, value and slot in agreement. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.1 · Pick 65 · Xavier Worthy · WR · rank 56
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Xavier Worthy at the 65th pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R3.25 · Pick 88 · Khyree Jackson · CB · rank 84
A reasonable price with a little left over, Khyree Jackson in the 88th overall pick. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Cade Stover · TE · rank 85
They did well to land Cade Stover in slot 91, just ahead of his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.32 · Pick 95 · Dominick Puni · OT · rank 91
A tidy little value on Dominick Puni in No. 95, a step better than break-even. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R4.1 · Pick 101 · Caelen Carson · CB · rank 92
A curious use of pick 101. Quarterback needed the pick; a cornerback in Caelen Carson did not.
R4.32 · Pick 132 · Fabien Lovett · DL · rank 145
They paid a round early for Fabien Lovett in the Round 4 slot, more than the board wanted. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R5.22 · Pick 158 · Tykee Smith · S · rank 147
Tykee Smith in slot 158 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R5.29 · Pick 165 · Justin Eboigbe · DL-EDGE · rank 150
Justin Eboigbe at the Round 5 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R5.36 · Pick 172 · Mason McCormick · OT · rank 159
A tidy bit of business in the 172nd pick, where Mason McCormick graded well above the range. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R5.39 · Pick 175 · Jaylan Ford · LB · rank 196
They talked themselves into Jaylan Ford at No. 175, and the board did not agree. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R6.2 · Pick 177 · Kendall Milton · RB · rank 190
They paid up for Kendall Milton at Round 6, Pick 2 when waiting would have done the job. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R7.32 · Pick 252 · Trey Knox · TE · rank 237
Trey Knox is a better player than the 252nd overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
