So far, I grade the Chiefs draft as...
...a solid A.
The #3 pick the Chiefs got the premier 5 technique DE in the draft which is absolutely necessary for the 3-4.
With the #34 pick, the Chiefs got their heir apparent QBOFT, Matt Cassell (who actually has NFL experience), OLB Mike Vrabel, and a ticket for Pro Bowl QB Jay Cutler out of Denver.
No matter how you slice it, that is a pretty effective first day draft--even if the first day of the actual draft seemed somewhat boring.
