Which Chiefs NFL Draft picks will make biggest early impact this year? A podcast
How did the Chiefs fare in the NFL Draft? Were they winners or losers in the league’s annual player-selection process?
And who among this year’s selections might emerge as an early contributor?
Kansas City Star sports columnist Sam McDowell and Chiefs beat writer Jesse Newell break it all down with host Blair Kerkhoff in this week’s edition of SportsBeat KC, The Star’s sports podcast presented by Underdog.
The Chiefs entered the 2025 draft with eight picks. After trades, they wound up making seven. Their first-round selection, tackle Josh Simmons of Ohio State at No. 32 overall, was the product of one of those trades.
The Chiefs addressed their biggest needs early and then took the best available players with their later picks. We discuss the team’s best moves, as well as some questionable ones, in this special post-draft podcast.
