The Chiefs' one glaring miss is tight end, a need they left exactly as they found it. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.32 · Pick 32 · Troy Franklin · WR · rank 30
In pick 32 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.32 · Pick 64 · Blake Fisher · OT · rank 69
They paid sticker price for Blake Fisher in the 64th pick, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.32 · Pick 95 · Leonard Taylor III · DL · rank 98
Leonard Taylor III in No. 95 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R4.33 · Pick 133 · Nehemiah Pritchett · CB · rank 133
Nehemiah Pritchett in Round 4, Pick 33 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R5.22 · Pick 158 · Anthony Gould · WR · rank 165
A straight-up fair deal on Anthony Gould at slot 158, value and slot in agreement. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.36 · Pick 172 · Walter Rouse · OT · rank 171
No drama and no debate, Walter Rouse went about where he belonged in the 172nd overall pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
