Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesA- FutureB-
The Chiefs cashed the board's mistake on Allen: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Braelon Allen, the No. 109 name on the board, stolen at No. 133.

They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In slot 32 they get a potential shutdown corner at a price that makes it sweeter. More want than need.
Pick72 Rnd3 Xavier Legette
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Xavier Legette. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick95 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
No edge and no loss on Christian Mahogany in the 95th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick114 Rnd4 Javon Foster
Javon Foster in the 114th pick is fair value, right on his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick133 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at pick 133 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick158 Rnd5 Justin Eboigbe
A quiet steal in No. 158: Justin Eboigbe for less than the market said. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick172 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
A slide stopped in the Round 5 slot, with Mason McCormick worth more than the price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
