Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Chiefs robbed the room for Jones. Final grade: B-.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Christian Jones, No. 249, roughly 59 picks past where he belonged.

McGlothern has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Troy Franklin
In pick 28 they get a go-to option on the outside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick60 Rnd2 Michael Hall Jr.
They left a pile of value on the table to take Michael Hall Jr. this early at the Round 2 slot. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick91 Rnd3 Darius Robinson
They talked themselves into Darius Robinson at the 91st overall pick, and the board did not agree. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick128 Rnd4 Javon Foster
By-the-book stuff, Javon Foster at the 128th pick squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick161 Rnd5 MarShawn Lloyd
Somehow MarShawn Lloyd was still sitting there in No. 161, and they pounced on premier running back value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick171 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
A cornerback of that caliber at Round 5, Pick 35 is the definition of value, full stop. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick175 Rnd5 Isaiah Williams
Isaiah Williams at pick No. 175 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick206 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Dwight McGlothern well ahead of where he belonged. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick249 Rnd7 Christian Jones
Christian Jones in pick 249 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
