Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs robbed the room for Lachey. Final grade: B.

Call it larceny. Luke Lachey sat on the board until No. 217, and the Chiefs did not need to be asked twice. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The Jackson pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In the 31st pick they get a run-stuffing presence up front, and a steal at that.
Pick63 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson at No. 63 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick66 Rnd3 Elic Ayomanor
They let Elic Ayomanor come to them and pounced at pick No. 66. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick97 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
A slide stopped in the Round 3 slot, with Andrew Mukuba worth more than the price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick132 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
They barely believed it either: Hollin Pierce still on the board at Round 4, Pick 31. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick165 Rnd5 Damien Martinez
A quiet steal in pick 165: Damien Martinez for less than the market said. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick217 Rnd6 Luke Lachey
They will replay Luke Lachey at slot 217 for years; that is how good the value is. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
