Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall A-
ValueC NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
Nobody dealt better than the Chiefs this weekend: A-.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Jordan Jefferson at slot 128 is 49 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. This is how you run a draft, and the A- reflects it.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. They banked enough surplus on Logan Jr. to cover a lot of smaller sins.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Bottom line, they did the job about as well as it can be done.

Pick Analysis
Pick71 Rnd3 Blake Corum
No edge and no loss on Blake Corum in Round 3, Pick 7; it is a wash and a sensible one. It fills a real need, too.
Pick105 Rnd4 Dallin Holker
A real head-scratcher, Dallin Holker in the Round 4 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick128 Rnd4 Jordan Jefferson
A big swing on Jordan Jefferson at the 128th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick168 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
They paid sticker price for Jaylan Ford in pick No. 168, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick171 Rnd5 Michael Barrett
The board had cheaper options than Michael Barrett at pick 171, and it noticed. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick175 Rnd5 Josh Proctor
They jumped the gun on Josh Proctor, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick188 Rnd6 Rasheen Ali
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Rasheen Ali. The roster fit checks out.
Pick225 Rnd7 Kenny Logan Jr.
They will replay Kenny Logan Jr. at the 225th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick226 Rnd7 Sheridan Jones
Nice patience on Sheridan Jones, who had no business lasting to slot 226. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick252 Rnd7 Aaron Frost
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Aaron Frost at pick 252 is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick255 Rnd7 Jordan Whittington
A reach on Jordan Whittington in the Round 7 slot; the board had better options right there. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick256 Rnd7 Hayden Hatten
Hayden Hatten at pick No. 256 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
