Arrowheadlines: Chiefs graded highly for their efforts in the draft

If we account for the addition of offensive tackle Orlando Brownu2015as Kansas City acquired him from the Ravens in exchange for its 2021 first-round picku2015then this draft class looks outstanding. But it’s a quality group even if we don’t. Bolton brings great instincts and an aggressive style to the linebacking corps; Humphrey could be a day-one starter at center; Kaindoh is a long, athletic edge rusher; and both Gray and Powell profile as valuable role players. Then there’s Smith, the sixth-round pick. He has big upside, but fell in part because of concerns around prior issues with blood clots.
