Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Chiefs: B-.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Chiefs spent pick 64 on Darius Robinson, a name most had 57 spots down the list. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

Leaving tight end unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. On value alone, Franklin makes the weekend a net positive.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Troy Franklin
In Round 1, Pick 32 they get a matchup problem out wide, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick64 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at pick 64 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick95 Rnd3 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick at No. 95 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick133 Rnd4 Khristian Boyd
They reached a country mile for Khristian Boyd at the 133rd overall pick, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick158 Rnd5 Braelon Allen
A straight-up fair deal on Braelon Allen at pick No. 158, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick172 Rnd5 Michael Barrett
A premium they did not need to pay, Michael Barrett a notch or two before his time. The roster fit checks out.
Pick210 Rnd6 Joshua Cephus
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Joshua Cephus. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick250 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
They reached into another round for Dwight McGlothern, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
