FutureD-
Flashes of a plan, unevenly run, for the Chiefs: C. The Chiefs did not so much draft Kendall Milton as overpay for him, 42 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend.
They will answer for taking cornerback early while quarterback went begging. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.
On the needs board they went 7 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.
The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.
Pick Analysis
Pick37
Rnd2
Keon Coleman
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Keon Coleman. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick52
Rnd2
Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in the 52nd overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick53
Rnd2
Kingsley Suamataia
The board had cheaper options than Kingsley Suamataia at the 53rd pick, and it noticed. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick64
Rnd2
Ruke Orhorhoro
Ruke Orhorhoro in No. 64 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick71
Rnd3
Max Melton
No edge and no loss on Max Melton in Round 3, Pick 7; it is a wash and a sensible one. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick83
Rnd3
Brandon Dorlus
A clean, defensible pick in slot 83 with a little surplus value in Brandon Dorlus. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick95
Rnd3
Jonah Elliss
Fair-plus on Jonah Elliss, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick99
Rnd3
Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at slot 99 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick114
Rnd4
Cedric Gray
By-the-book stuff, Cedric Gray at No. 114 squarely in line with his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick116
Rnd4
Elijah Jones
A surprising call. With quarterback still to address, they spent the 116th overall pick on Elijah Jones, a cornerback they were not short of.
Pick132
Rnd4
Mason McCormick
They went early on Mason McCormick in pick 132, and the value did not follow. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick155
Rnd5
Kitan Oladapo
A straight-up fair deal on Kitan Oladapo at the 155th pick, value and slot in agreement. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick159
Rnd5
Kendall Milton
Kendall Milton in pick No. 159 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick173
Rnd5
Jared Wiley
A real head-scratcher, Jared Wiley in the Round 5 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick252
Rnd7
C.J. Hanson
A reach on C.J. Hanson in No. 252; the board had better options right there. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
