Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B+
ValueB NeedA- TradesA+ FutureC
The Chiefs fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+.

Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Chiefs came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close. Call it a sensible B+, earned the boring way.

They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it. That Jackson pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In pick 22 they get a weapon on the perimeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick24 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In the 24th overall pick they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick71 Rnd3 Ja'Lynn Polk
A tidy little value on Ja'Lynn Polk in Round 3, Pick 7, a step better than break-even. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick105 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Khyree Jackson at slot 105 is the proof. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick114 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
Nothing to complain about; Zak Zinter went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick116 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Johnny Wilson. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
