Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs cashed the board's mistake on TeSlaa: B-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Isaac TeSlaa, the No. 233 name on the board, stolen at the 257th pick. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want. Reaching for Porter left real value on the table behind him. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In pick No. 31 they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher, and a steal at that.
Pick63 Rnd2 Jayden Higgins
A clean, defensible pick in the 63rd overall pick with a little surplus value in Jayden Higgins. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick66 Rnd3 Darien Porter
Darien Porter in the 66th pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick95 Rnd3 Devin Neal
Value with a capital V on Devin Neal in Round 3, Pick 31, a genuine coup. It fills a real need, too.
Pick133 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
A straight-up fair deal on Hollin Pierce at No. 133, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick226 Rnd7 Jordan Hancock
They let Jordan Hancock come to them and pounced at pick 226. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick251 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan at slot 251 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick257 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
Isaac TeSlaa at the Round 7 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
