The tape said wait; the Chiefs did not. Walter Rouse went at the Round 6 slot, a good 71 picks before the board was ready.
On value alone, Bertrand makes the weekend a net positive. For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.
Pick-by-Pick
In pick 32 they get a go-to option on the outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
A tidy little value on Chris Braswell in pick No. 64, a step better than break-even. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
No edge and no loss on Tyler Davis in slot 95; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Justin Eboigbe at the Round 4 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
They robbed the room for Kamal Hadden here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Jaylen Wright at Round 5, Pick 36 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The roster fit checks out.
They reached into another round for Walter Rouse, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
JD Bertrand at the 250th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
