Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueA NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs let Harvey fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: RJ Harvey, the No. 170 name on the board, stolen at No. 256. No fireworks, but a solid B.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They are betting Slater proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In pick No. 31 they get a difference-maker at receiver at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at slot 63 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick66 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and TreVeyon Henderson at pick 66 is the proof. The roster fit checks out.
Pick95 Rnd3 Harold Fannin Jr.
Harold Fannin Jr. in the 95th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick132 Rnd4 Jackson Slater
Jackson Slater at No. 132 is a conviction pick that outran the value. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick256 Rnd7 RJ Harvey
You do not let a running back like RJ Harvey reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
