Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesC FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Chiefs.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Chiefs started one anyway for Will Sheppard, 53 picks ahead of schedule. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

Ferguson falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

The dealing tilted against them, just enough to notice. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick35 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tyler Booker. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick64 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
A safety of that caliber at pick No. 64 is the definition of value, full stop. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick66 Rnd3 Omarion Hampton
They will replay Omarion Hampton at the 66th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick96 Rnd3 Demetrius Knight Jr.
Demetrius Knight Jr. in slot 96 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The roster fit checks out.
Pick132 Rnd4 Kyren Lacy
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 4 slot with a little surplus value in Kyren Lacy. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick167 Rnd5 Terrance Ferguson
They barely believed it either: Terrance Ferguson still on the board at the 167th pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick176 Rnd6 Nazir Stackhouse
Nazir Stackhouse at No. 176 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick256 Rnd7 Will Sheppard
A big swing on Will Sheppard at slot 256, well ahead of any board in the building. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
