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

You build a draft on nights like this. KeAndre Lambert-Smith had no business being available in slot 251, and the Chiefs did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

The Yarns pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 James Pearce Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 31 they get a premier pass rusher, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 Darien Porter
The board had cheaper options than Darien Porter at slot 63, and it noticed. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick66 Rnd3 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori in pick No. 66 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick95 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant at pick 95 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick133 Rnd4 Miles Frazier
Miles Frazier is a better player than the 133rd pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick226 Rnd7 Marcus Yarns
They reached a country mile for Marcus Yarns at the 226th overall pick, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick251 Rnd7 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
KeAndre Lambert-Smith in the Round 7 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick257 Rnd7 Jalen Travis
Value said wait; Jalen Travis in No. 257 says they were not listening. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
