Larceny in the 246th pick lands the Chiefs a A-, Dixon and all. The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Thaddeus Dixon, the Round 7 slot, roughly 31 picks past where he belonged. Little to argue with here, and the A- says so.
The cost of the Jatta reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.
A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.
It is a haul that will look even better come September.
Pick Analysis
Pick24
Rnd1
Arvell Reese
In the 24th overall pick they get a downhill thumper at linebacker at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick40
Rnd2
Dillon Thieneman
Dillon Thieneman at Round 2, Pick 8 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick74
Rnd3
Malachi Fields
No drama and no debate, Malachi Fields went about where he belonged in No. 74. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick108
Rnd4
Emmett Johnson
They read the board right and Emmett Johnson was the payoff at pick 108. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick109
Rnd4
Malik Muhammad
They robbed the room for Malik Muhammad here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick150
Rnd5
Chase Roberts
A reach on Chase Roberts in slot 150; the board had better options right there. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick176
Rnd5
Jalen Stroman
Nothing to complain about; Jalen Stroman went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick204
Rnd6
Jaren Kanak
Jaren Kanak at the 204th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick215
Rnd6
Isaiah Jatta
Value said wait; Isaiah Jatta in the Round 6 slot says they were not listening. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick246
Rnd7
Thaddeus Dixon
Thaddeus Dixon in pick 246 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
