A+++ Draft Grade.
Trading back 4 slots and getting Skyy and then an extra 5th where we drafted a Beast for Right Tackle was brilliant. I think the Chiefs were as tired of seeing the defense miss tackles as the fans were. We drafted some heavy hitters. |

So I was at B/B+ And while I think I like the trade-up for McDuffie, I still have some concerns there. I mean....McDuffie really does have T-Rex arms. And for all the bright line rules people like to throw around, dudes with arms like his just don't typically succeed at this level. And we could've grabbed someone like Myjai Sanders with that pick at 93. 125 could've been Ezukanma or Austin Kyler Gordon/George Karlaftis/Myjai Sanders/Erik Ezukanma - That's looks awfully good to me. But man, some of his tape looks so good. I can't recall seeing many guys who can mirror a route like he does. That ability to stay in a guys hip on one of those comeback routes is so rare but he gears down and then changes direction so so well. But yeah, you said most of what I would say. A couple of luxury picks (though like I said, I loved the Chenal pick) and I think too much emphasis on floor over ceiling across the board to go with too much confidence in a DL that still looks like a big ol' pile of smashed assholes. It's a good draft - and it SHOULD be given the capital we brought in. But there were some rough edges to it, IMO, so I wouldn't go all the way to an A. |
On paper, this is my favorite draft in 20+ years. This team is trying to build an identity that combines offensive skill and big play ability with physicality and nastiness and every player fits that bill. The defensive and trench guys are just monsters. Should be a blast to watch once guys get their feet wet. This LB group is special.

Dorsey, Albert, flowers, Charles and Carr is a MONSTER haul. Even that puss a Barry Richardson had a productive season and I think Cottam would have been decent if he didn’t have the neck injury. And of course the elation of the Mahomes pick will likely never be topped. |

I actually quite liked the emphasis on floor in the earlier rounds and ceiling in the latter. It's definitely possible this ends with McDuffie's micro arms being a huge hindrance alongside Karlaftis' lack of bend. But their production had been so high you have to hope ar least one of them makes it. I'd be far less confident that someone like Mafe adds immediate value. |

I think just about every pick has solid potential. I could even see Pacheco having a nice career in our offense. To me, Cook and Chenal are great picks. I could see one or even both starting soon. I can envision Chenal crushing Allen when he takes off on a designed run. |
