I am trying to build a lightning dashboard that contains metric components that display the total records in a report. For some reason, some of the reports I'm adding don't allow me to add them as anything but a lightning table.
Any idea why this is happening?

I figured this out, so I may as well post about it here. For a metric component to work, you need to group your report by something. It doesn't really matter what. Once I saved my reports with a grouping field, I could add them to the dashboard as a metric report that displayed the grand total amount of records.
