Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs robbed the room for West. Final grade: B-.

You build a draft on nights like this. CJ West had no business being available in slot 256, and the Chiefs did the only sane thing and turned in the card. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

They will answer for taking safety early while wide receiver, tight end and other spots went begging. A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In pick 31 they get a two-high chess piece at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick63 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins at pick No. 63 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick66 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending No. 66 on Andrew Mukuba with wide receiver, tight end and other spots unsolved.
Pick95 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
A clean, defensible pick in slot 95 with a little surplus value in Ozzy Trapilo. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick132 Rnd4 Brashard Smith
Nice patience on Brashard Smith, who had no business lasting to the Round 4 slot. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick256 Rnd7 CJ West
The board fumbled CJ West all the way to Round 7, Pick 38, and they scooped it up. The roster fit checks out.
