The first day of the 2024 NFL Draft has finally arrived, and the Kansas City Chiefs will have seven picks to select players who will help them defend their championship.
The Chiefs have won back-to-back titles and three in the last five years. Now, the team is focused on trying to put together the first "three-peat" in the NFL since the Green Bay Packers did it back in the 1960s.
KCUR sports contributor Greg Echlin told Up To Date that the team has a few areas on the roster that definitely need to be addressed.
"I think the Chiefs will be looking to fortify their position on the offensive line," Echlin said.
He also believes the team needs to add a wide receiver, as the Chiefs led the league in dropped passes in 2023.
"And I think the Chiefs feel that there is enough of a wide receiver corps in the draft, that by the time the Chiefs pick with the 32nd pick of the 1st round, that there still could be a good (wide receiver) available at that point."
