Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall D
ValueF NeedB TradesF FutureF
The Chiefs bled value on every deal, hence the D.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Chiefs reached some 351 spots for Jaleel Skinner, and value like that does not grow back. A D that will need time and luck to look better.

Landing Chiles that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The trades bled value they could not afford to lose.

Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Jaleel Skinner
In No. 29 they get a mismatch in the passing game, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick61 Rnd2 Deion Burks
They reached a country mile for Deion Burks at slot 61, and the board is aghast. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick94 Rnd3 Tree Babalade
Tree Babalade at the 94th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick99 Rnd3 Whit Weeks
The board fumbled Whit Weeks all the way to Round 3, Pick 35, and they scooped it up. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick100 Rnd3 Princewill Umanmielen
They left a pile of value on the table to take Princewill Umanmielen this early at the 100th overall pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick116 Rnd4 Monroe Freeling
Monroe Freeling slid further than he should have, and pick No. 116 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick168 Rnd5 Daevin Hobbs
This one needs a full-page explanation: Daevin Hobbs in the 168th pick, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick207 Rnd6 Jonathan Jefferson
Jonathan Jefferson in pick No. 207 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick212 Rnd6 Jaquaize Pettaway
Jaquaize Pettaway at Round 6, Pick 36 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick223 Rnd7 Dezz Ricks
Dezz Ricks at slot 223 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick234 Rnd7 Dante Dowdell
No edge and no loss on Dante Dowdell in the 234th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick242 Rnd7 Solomon Tuliaupupu
Solomon Tuliaupupu at the Round 7 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick247 Rnd7 Randon Fontenette
They jumped the gun on Randon Fontenette, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick250 Rnd7 Darrell Simmons Jr.
A big swing on Darrell Simmons Jr. at No. 250, well ahead of any board in the building. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick254 Rnd7 Gentry Williams
A premium they did not need to pay, Gentry Williams a notch or two before his time. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick256 Rnd7 Jaden Bray
They talked themselves into Jaden Bray at the 256th overall pick, and the board did not agree. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick257 Rnd7 Aidan Chiles
Aidan Chiles in No. 257 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
