Draft Grades: AFC West

Miss the NFL Draft last weekend? Let the Bleacher Report's Rich Bowler catch you up to speed with team-by-team breakdowns of the winners and losers around the league.

AFC West

  

Denver Broncos

Grade: B

Best Pick: Jarvis Moss

Sleeper: Ryan Harris

Picks: (4) DE Jarvis Moss, DE Tim Crowder, OT Ryan Harris, DT Marcus Thomas

Comments: The Broncos chose to use the few picks they had to fortify their defensive Line. Moss and Crowder could have an immediate impact rushing the passer, and should improve upon the Broncos biggest weakness. Marcus Thomas has some character issues, but with a strong-willed head coach his talent may be worth the risk.

Kansas City Chiefs

Grade: B+

Best Pick: Dwayne Bowe

Sleeper: Michael Allan

Picks: (7) WR Dwayne Bowe, DE Turk McBride, DT DeMarcus "Tank" Tyler, RB Kolby Smith, K Justin Medlock , OT Herb Taylor, TE Michael Allan

Comments: The addition of a physical wide receiver in Bowe may give the Chiefs the outside threat that their offense has lacked in recent years. The Chiefs also addressed their weakness on the defensive line, adding the versatile Turk McBride and the massive Tank Tyler. The rest of KC's picks were used primarily to add depth on offense.

Oakland Raiders

Grade: A-

Best Pick: Michael Bush

Sleeper: Johnnie Lee Higgins

Picks: (11) QB JaMarcus Russell, TE Zach Miller, DE Quentin Moses, OT Mario Henderson, WR Johnnie Lee Higgins, RB Michael Bush, CB John Bowie, DE Jay Richardson, S Eric Frampton, FB Oren O'Neal, WR Jonathan Holland

Comments: Finally the Oakland Raiders seem to be heading in the right direction. Although they did not focus enough on their deficiencies on the offensive line, they did acquire a great deal of talent. Besides drafting JaMarcus Russell, the Raiders picked up two of the highest-rated college prospects coming into last season: Michael Bush and Quentin Moses. I like the pick of Zach Miller because it gives Russell a young tight end to grow with in Lane Kiffin's offense.

San Diego Chargers

Grade: C-

Best Pick: Eric Weddle

Sleeper: Brandon Siler

Picks: (6) WR Craig Davis, S Eric Weddle, LB Anthony Waters, TE Scott Chandler, WR Legedu Naanee, LB Brandon Siler

Comments: The good news is that the Chargers got players that they were really high on. The bad news is that they gave up way too many picks to get safety Eric Weddle, and took wideout Craig Davis ahead of a number of more talented receivers. Maybe the Chargers know something I don't—but I think they could have gotten better value.
