Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesC+ FutureB
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Chiefs.

Priorities are a choice, and the Chiefs made a strange one, taking Andrew Mukuba at safety in slot 85 with wide receiver, tight end and other spots crying out for the pick instead.

A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. That is a safety worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Xavier Watts
In pick No. 32 they get a downhill hitter at safety, though they paid up to get him.
Pick66 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
A reach on Tate Ratledge in Round 3, Pick 2; the board had better options right there. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick85 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
A want over a need in pick 85: Andrew Mukuba adds a safety while wide receiver, tight end and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick96 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo at No. 96 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick132 Rnd4 Rylie Mills
Rylie Mills in the Round 4 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick189 Rnd6 Dorian Strong
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Dorian Strong in slot 189. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
