Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs let Neal fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

Call it larceny. Devin Neal sat on the board until the 132nd pick, and the Chiefs did not need to be asked twice. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

The Alexander reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kenneth Grant at No. 31. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick64 Rnd2 Matthew Golden
Circle this one: Matthew Golden at slot 64 is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick66 Rnd3 Trey Amos
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Trey Amos in pick No. 66. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick95 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander at the 95th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick132 Rnd4 Devin Neal
Devin Neal in the 132nd overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick256 Rnd7 Trey Zuhn III
They will replay Trey Zuhn III at Round 7, Pick 38 for years; that is how good the value is. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
