Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs cashed the board's mistake on Collins: B.

Call it larceny. Beaux Collins sat on the board until slot 252, and the Chiefs did not need to be asked twice.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. The Davis reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

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

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

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In Round 1, Pick 31 they get a blindside protector. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick63 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
Jack Sawyer in slot 63 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick94 Rnd3 Quinyon Mitchell
Good price on Quinyon Mitchell in No. 94, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick131 Rnd4 Roman Wilson
Roman Wilson in the 131st overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick159 Rnd5 Zakhari Franklin
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Zakhari Franklin in the Round 5 slot. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick171 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at pick No. 171 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick175 Rnd5 Mario Williams
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Mario Williams at the 175th pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick209 Rnd6 Ray Davis
They jumped the gun on Ray Davis, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick252 Rnd7 Beaux Collins
You do not let a wide receiver like Beaux Collins reach pick No. 252 and blink. They did not. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
