Kansas City Chiefs

The phones sank the Chiefs this weekend: D-.

Future C

The Chiefs put a flag in the ground for Savion Williams, 49 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. The process wobbled, and the D- is where it lands.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Anderson at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.20 · Pick 20 · Travis Hunter · CB · rank 3
In the 20th overall pick they get a lockdown presence outside at a price that makes it sweeter.
R1.32 · Pick 32 · Jack Sawyer · DE-EDGE · rank 22
A quiet steal in the 32nd pick: Jack Sawyer for less than the market said. The roster fit checks out.
R2.32 · Pick 64 · Tate Ratledge · OG · rank 58
Tate Ratledge at pick No. 64 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R3.11 · Pick 75 · Ajani Cornelius · OT · rank 59
They let Ajani Cornelius come to them and pounced at Round 3, Pick 11. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.12 · Pick 76 · Walter Nolen · DT · rank 38
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Walter Nolen reach slot 76 and blink. They did not. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R4.12 · Pick 108 · Dasan McCullough · LB · rank 99
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Dasan McCullough at pick 108. A need, and now a little less of one.
R4.31 · Pick 127 · Nic Anderson · WR · rank 85
They robbed the room for Nic Anderson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R4.32 · Pick 128 · Sonny Styles · S · rank 92
Sonny Styles in Round 4, Pick 32 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R5.31 · Pick 159 · Riley Mahlman · OT · rank 138
Taking Riley Mahlman in No. 159 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R5.32 · Pick 160 · Rylie Mills · DT · rank 130
Rylie Mills in the Round 5 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It fills a real need, too.
R6.4 · Pick 164 · Tommi Hill · CB · rank 136
Tommi Hill at pick No. 164 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
R6.8 · Pick 168 · Bryson Nesbit · TE · rank 162
Bryson Nesbit at the 168th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R7.1 · Pick 193 · Savion Williams · WR · rank 242
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Savion Williams well ahead of where he belonged. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
