The Chiefs own eight picks in the draft, including two third-rounders. Their needs include pass rusher and offensive tackle.

The Kansas City Chiefs understand that in the NFL, standing still is the fastest way to fall behind. With Patrick Mahomes still operating at the peak of his powers, Kansas City approaches the 2025 NFL Draft with a rather unfamiliar mindset.

For the first time in a while, the Chiefs may not be desperate to add a wide receiver. They have Rashee Rice coming back from a knee injury, Xavier Worthy coming off a breakout rookie season, and they re-signed Marquise Brown and Juju Smith-Schuster to provide a veteran presence. If anything, they could add some depth in the later rounds.
