Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Chiefs did exactly that with Jimmy Horn Jr. in the 256th pick. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Getting Warren where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes. The skill positions did well by the weekend.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the Round 1 slot they get a moveable chess piece at tight end, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick63 Rnd2 Deone Walker
They took Deone Walker at par in slot 63, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick66 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
Value with a capital V on TreVeyon Henderson in pick 66, a genuine coup. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick95 Rnd3 Anthony Belton
Value said wait; Anthony Belton in the 95th overall pick says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick132 Rnd4 Rylie Mills
Rylie Mills at pick No. 132 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick256 Rnd7 Jimmy Horn Jr.
A big swing on Jimmy Horn Jr. at the 256th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
