Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall C+
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesD FutureB-
The Chiefs bled value on every deal, hence the C+.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Bucky Irving in Round 3, Pick 25, a good 45 spots before the room expected him. The final tally is a middling C+.

Landing Williams that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Call it incomplete, and check back in a couple of seasons.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
In pick 32 they get a home-run threat at receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick74 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia at slot 74 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick79 Rnd3 Andru Phillips
They paid sticker price for Andru Phillips in Round 3, Pick 15, and that is fine. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick88 Rnd3 Bucky Irving
A big swing on Bucky Irving at pick No. 88, well ahead of any board in the building. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick100 Rnd3 Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo in No. 100 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick143 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
They jumped the gun on Trevor Keegan, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick173 Rnd5 Javontae Jean-Baptiste
This one needs a full-page explanation: Javontae Jean-Baptiste in pick 173, miles early. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick209 Rnd6 Trey Taylor
Trey Taylor at slot 209 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick213 Rnd6 KT Leveston
By-the-book stuff, KT Leveston at the Round 6 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick217 Rnd6 Isaiah Williams
Isaiah Williams in Round 6, Pick 42 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
