The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named tight end, a need the Chiefs walked right past. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.
The McCormick pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick-by-Pick
In No. 32 they get a weapon on the perimeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
No edge and no loss on Patrick Paul in pick No. 64; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Khyree Jackson. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
A tidy little value on Isaac Guerendo in the Round 4 slot, a step better than break-even. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Mason McCormick at Round 5, Pick 23 is the proof. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
By-the-book stuff, Khristian Boyd at the 173rd overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jalen Sundell in pick 252. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
