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

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Ja'Quinden Jackson got past him. The Chiefs do not have to explain a thing at pick 256.

Reaching for Rucker left real value on the table behind him. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Cameron Williams
In pick 31 they get a blindside protector. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 Demetrius Knight Jr.
Fair-plus on Demetrius Knight Jr., a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick66 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
No drama and no debate, Andrew Mukuba went about where he belonged in Round 3, Pick 2. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick108 Rnd4 Kaimon Rucker
They talked themselves into Kaimon Rucker at the Round 4 slot, and the board did not agree. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick132 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
They will replay Tez Johnson at the 132nd overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick175 Rnd5 Dorian Strong
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 175, where Dorian Strong graded well above the range. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick256 Rnd7 Ja'Quinden Jackson
Ja'Quinden Jackson in the 256th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
