Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureC+
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Chiefs.

For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Chiefs walked out of the weekend still thin at tight end, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

The Oladapo steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The cost of the McCormick reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a true top target. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick65 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
They paid sticker price for Kingsley Suamataia in slot 65, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick132 Rnd4 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick at pick No. 132 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick159 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
A slide stopped in No. 159, with Kitan Oladapo worth more than the price. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick173 Rnd5 Khristian Boyd
Khristian Boyd at Round 5, Pick 37 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick196 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern in the 196th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick209 Rnd6 Ryan Flournoy
A tidy bit of business in pick 209, where Ryan Flournoy graded well above the range. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick252 Rnd7 Michael Barrett
No edge and no loss on Michael Barrett in the 252nd overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
