Andy Reid and the Kansas City Chiefs will be looking to improve their roster in the 2025 NFL Draft, following a painful ending to last season. In February, their three-peat aspirations were destroyed by the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX.
With Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce running things back, the Chiefs have the opportunity to surround its veteran leaders with young talent, who must prove capable of contributing to a franchise with high aspirations.
The Chiefs’ deep playoff run in 2024, which ended with a Super Bowl loss, pushed them back in this year’s Draft order. Still, Reid and company will have their fair share of picks to bring new prospects to Kansas City.
What selections do the Chiefs have in the 2025 NFL Draft?
The Kansas City Chiefs own eight picks in the 2025 NFL Draft, including a first-round selection at No. 31. They will also be on the clock many times after Day 1, with a second-rounder, two third-round picks, a fourth-rounder, and three seventh-round selections. Curiously, the Chiefs will also have the last pick in the Draft, so they’re projected to get this year’s “Mr. Irrelevant.”
Head coach Andy Reid of the Kansas City Chiefs speaks to the media during the NFL Scouting Combine at the Indiana Convention Center on February 25, 2025 in Indianapolis, Indiana.
