Every other box got a look, but tight end did not. The Chiefs will head to camp with the same hole they walked in with.

The Latham pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.32 · Pick 32 · JC Latham · OT · rank 15
In No. 32 they get a long-term starter on the line, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R2.32 · Pick 64 · Xavier Worthy · WR · rank 55
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Xavier Worthy at slot 64. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R3.32 · Pick 95 · Christian Mahogany · OG · rank 98
Christian Mahogany in the Round 3 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R4.32 · Pick 132 · Johnny Wilson · WR · rank 126
Fair-plus on Johnny Wilson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R5.23 · Pick 159 · Luke McCaffrey · WR · rank 149
A quiet steal in the 159th overall pick: Luke McCaffrey for less than the market said. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R5.37 · Pick 173 · Marist Liufau · LB · rank 166
Marist Liufau at the 173rd pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The roster fit checks out.
