Mr. Swift DRAFTING FOR THEChiefs
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall
B-
ValueB
NeedB-
TradesB-
FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Chiefs: B-. Some picks age like wine; Christian Jones at slot 158 will need to, sitting 52 spots clear of his grade. The bottom line is a respectable B-.
They will answer for taking OLB-EDGE early while wide receiver, tight end and other spots went begging. On value alone, Paul makes the weekend a net positive.
They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.
Pick Analysis
Pick32
Rnd1
Terrion Arnold
In the 32nd pick they get a lockdown presence outside at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick64
Rnd2
Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul is a better player than No. 64 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick95
Rnd3
Javon Solomon
They bypassed pressing needs at wide receiver, tight end and other spots to take Javon Solomon, an OLB-EDGE that was not the priority.
Pick133
Rnd4
Justin Eboigbe
A reasonable price with a little left over, Justin Eboigbe in slot 133. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick158
Rnd5
Christian Jones
They left a pile of value on the table to take Christian Jones this early at the Round 5 slot. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick172
Rnd5
Isaiah Davis
Value said wait; Isaiah Davis in Round 5, Pick 36 says they were not listening. The roster fit checks out.
