Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Chiefs for Morrison: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Benjamin Morrison at pick 95 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

They chose more darts over a bigger single swing.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick36 Rnd2 Colston Loveland
A quiet steal in slot 36: Colston Loveland for less than the market said. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick63 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
A tidy bit of business in the 63rd overall pick, where TreVeyon Henderson graded well above the range. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick71 Rnd3 Cameron Williams
They paid sticker price for Cameron Williams in the 71st pick, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick95 Rnd3 Benjamin Morrison
Benjamin Morrison in Round 3, Pick 31 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick107 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
No drama and no debate, Jordan Phillips went about where he belonged in pick No. 107. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick133 Rnd4 Jaylin Lane
Jaylin Lane at pick 133 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick182 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They took Dont'e Thornton Jr. at par in the Round 6 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick184 Rnd6 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson in No. 184 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick226 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
Cam Jackson at the 226th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick251 Rnd7 Jabbar Muhammad
A slide stopped in the Round 7 slot, with Jabbar Muhammad worth more than the price. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick257 Rnd7 Cody Lindenberg
A straight-up fair deal on Cody Lindenberg at the 257th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It fills a real need, too.
