Draft Grade — Chiefs
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesB FutureB
The Chiefs let Thornton Jr. fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Dont'e Thornton Jr. got past him. The Chiefs do not have to explain a thing at Round 7, Pick 23. No fireworks, but a solid B.

The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

They chose more darts over a bigger single swing.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the tight end spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In the 31st pick they get a weapon on the perimeter at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick63 Rnd2 Trey Amos
They let Trey Amos come to them and pounced at Round 2, Pick 31. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick74 Rnd3 Deone Walker
Nice patience on Deone Walker, who had no business lasting to pick 74. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick132 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
Somehow Smael Mondon Jr. was still sitting there in No. 132, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick141 Rnd5 Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton in pick No. 141 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick147 Rnd5 Logan Brown
They did well to land Logan Brown in slot 147, just ahead of his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick168 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten slipping to the 168th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick241 Rnd7 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Taking Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the Round 7 slot is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick256 Rnd7 Kitan Crawford
They will replay Kitan Crawford at Round 7, Pick 38 for years; that is how good the value is. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
