Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs let Bond fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Isaiah Bond, the No. 75 name on the board, stolen at the 102nd pick. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

They will need Grant to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
A quiet steal in the Round 1 slot: Tyler Warren for less than the market said. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick66 Rnd3 Charles Grant
A wild overpay on Charles Grant in the 66th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick69 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
They took Quinshon Judkins at par in Round 3, Pick 5, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick102 Rnd3 Isaiah Bond
They will replay Isaiah Bond at No. 102 for years; that is how good the value is. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick106 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips at pick 106 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick130 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
They liked Malachi Moore enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 130. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick133 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
A conviction pick on Emery Jones Jr. at pick No. 133 that the board grades a round light. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick228 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
They jumped the gun on Cam Jackson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick244 Rnd7 Theo Wease Jr.
They went early on Theo Wease Jr. in slot 244, and the value did not follow. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick251 Rnd7 John Williams
John Williams at the Round 7 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick257 Rnd7 Hayden Conner
A premium they did not need to pay, Hayden Conner a notch or two before his time. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
