Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureB-
Grand theft in the Round 7 slot: the Chiefs steal McGlothern and grade out a B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Dwight McGlothern, the No. 221 name on the board, stolen at the 247th overall pick.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They will need Johnson to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Xavier Legette
In No. 26 they get a go-to option on the outside, though they paid up to get him. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jermaine Burton
No edge and no loss on Jermaine Burton in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick89 Rnd3 Trey Benson
Trey Benson is a better player than the 89th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick128 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Theo Johnson well ahead of where he belonged. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick167 Rnd5 Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe in Round 5, Pick 31 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick171 Rnd5 Christian Jones
They liked Christian Jones enough to skip the value, taking him in the 171st pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick175 Rnd5 Jaylen Harrell
The board had cheaper options than Jaylen Harrell at slot 175, and it noticed. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick204 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett at pick No. 204 is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick230 Rnd7 Miles Frazier
Miles Frazier in the Round 7 slot is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick247 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern at the 247th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A minor need, but a need all the same.
