Overall 2021 Chiefs Draft Class Grade

So here are the final grades for the 2021 Chiefs draft class.

Nick Bolton: B+
Creed Humphrey: A
Joshua Kaindoh: A-
Noah Gray: C
Cornell Powell: A-
Trey Smith: A

Overall Class Grade: B+

While my official grade for the players taken in the 2021 draft for the Chiefs is a B+, if you were to factor in the addition of Orlando Brown Jr. this class becomes a clear A. I am thrilled with this class and the state of the Chiefs roster after the draft. The only thing I think they have to do at this point is add another cornerback since they weren’t able to address the position in this draft. I wouldn’t mind another pass rusher as well, since Kaindoh may need some time to develop, but this class is still a big win for Brett Veach and his team. I felt like they consistently got good value and filled holes on the roster.

So what do you think Chiefs fans? Did you like this draft class? Are there any of my grades that you think are way off? I’d love to read your thoughts in the comments below.
