Chiefs 7-Round Mock Draft: KC Fills Biggest Need Immediately

The Kansas City Chiefs fell just short of making history after a disappointing Super Bowl loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. The team will undergo immense change this offseason with several big names, including Trey Smith, Nick Bolton, and Justin Reid.

The Chiefs are not just going to roll over after a Super Bowl loss and plan on contending for the Super Bowl yet again next season. The Chiefs have proven an ability to add talent through the draft, and with the combine quickly approaching, let's take a look at some potential players they could take in the 2025 draft.

Round 1, Pick 31: Arizona OL Jonah Savaiinaea

Savaiinaea is one of my favorite names in the draft and is a guy who I think the Chiefs should be interested in early in the draft. Kansas City has had struggles at offensive tackle over the last couple of seasons, and it was on full display in the Super Bowl. With the team losing Trey Smith and the potential of Jawaan Taylor being cut, the Chiefs will need to make changes on the line to protect Patrick Mahomes in 2025.

Savaiinaea is a MASSIVE man who came in at 6’4/340 and 34 ⅝ in arms at the Senior Bowl, hitting every benchmark to be an NFL tackle. On film, Savaiinaea is a nasty, violent run blocker who uses his huge frame to dominate opposing linemen with elite power in the run game. He has very impressive movement skills for a guy of his size and uses his longer arms well to keep guys away from his chest.

The fit with Kansas City feels perfect, as the team could have 2-3 open spots on the offensive line, and Savaiinaea could fill any one of them. Savaiinaea has experience at both tackle spots and at guard and looked solid at every position he has played. Regardless of what the team does in free agency this offseason, the Chiefs can play Savaiinaea at LT, RT, or RG, depending on what they need, and I think he would be the perfect pick for them at the end of the first round.
