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

Call it larceny. Myles Jones sat on the board until slot 252, and the Chiefs did not need to be asked twice.

A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Keon Coleman
In pick 31 they get a true top target, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
Value with a capital V on Patrick Paul in the 63rd overall pick, a genuine coup. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick94 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
Taking Javon Bullard in the Round 3 slot is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick131 Rnd4 Johnny Dixon
Good price on Johnny Dixon in the 131st pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick161 Rnd5 Austin Booker
No edge and no loss on Austin Booker in slot 161; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick171 Rnd5 Cedric Johnson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Cedric Johnson at pick No. 171 is the proof. It fills a real need, too.
Pick175 Rnd5 Dylan Laube
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Dylan Laube in No. 175, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick209 Rnd6 Isaiah Williams
They read the board right and Isaiah Williams was the payoff at Round 6, Pick 34. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick252 Rnd7 Myles Jones
A cornerback of that caliber at pick No. 252 is the definition of value, full stop. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
