Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs won the night they stopped Campbell from sliding. Grade: B.

The Chiefs spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Jihaad Campbell, the No. 38 name on the board, in No. 64.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. They will need Broughton to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Jonah Savaiinaea
In pick 32 they get a cornerstone up front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick64 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
The board fumbled Jihaad Campbell all the way to slot 64, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick66 Rnd3 Tyler Warren
They robbed the room for Tyler Warren here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick96 Rnd3 Tai Felton
Tai Felton in pick No. 96 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick132 Rnd4 Vernon Broughton
They liked Vernon Broughton enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 4, Pick 31. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
