The tape said wait; the Chiefs did not. Khristian Boyd went at pick No. 158, a good 21 picks before the board was ready. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.
That tight end hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.
Pick-by-Pick
Darius Robinson in the 32nd pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Devontez Walker. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
By-the-book stuff, Christian Mahogany at Round 3, Pick 32 squarely in line with his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
No drama and no debate, Jaylin Simpson went about where he belonged in No. 133. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Value said wait; Khristian Boyd in slot 158 says they were not listening. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Walter Rouse at pick 172 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
