Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall D
ValueF NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A weekend the Chiefs will want back. Grade: D.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Keyjuan Brown, 383 picks early at No. 116.

A whole weekend of picks and offensive lineman is somehow still a want. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Jermaine Mathews Jr.
In slot 15 they get a lockdown presence outside, a steep price for the projection. More want than need.
Pick46 Rnd2 Shamar Easter
Shamar Easter at No. 46 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick81 Rnd3 Kenyatta Jackson Jr.
Kenyatta Jackson Jr. at the Round 3 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick116 Rnd4 Keyjuan Brown
Keyjuan Brown in pick 116 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick155 Rnd5 Hykeem Williams
They left a pile of value on the table to take Hykeem Williams this early at Round 5, Pick 15. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick176 Rnd5 Thomas Collins
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Thomas Collins. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
