The Kansas City Chiefs made it to the Super Bowl three years in a row.
They won two of those games, and they almost were undefeated last season.
However, even the best things can be better.
That’s why, on the heels of the Super Bowl LIX loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, general manager Brett Veach recently acknowledged there is work to do on the roster.
“There’s always room for improvement,” Veach said, via Charles Goldman.
#Chiefs GM Brett Veach on the roster: “There’s always room for improvement.”
He mentions O-Line, D-Line, and cornerback as deep positions in the 2025 NFL Draft.

With the 2025 NFL Draft approaching, Veach talked about adding talent to the offensive line, defensive line and at cornerback.
The Chiefs have been the team to beat for the past half-decade, and that’s not going to change anytime soon, even if they’re no longer the reigning Super Bowl champions.
They still have arguably the best offensive play-caller (head coach Andy Reid), defensive coordinator (Steve Spagnuolo) and quarterback (Patrick Mahomes) in the NFL.
The Chiefs were able to regroup and retool after losing to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Super Bowl LV, so it’s certainly possible they can do so again.
Veach has done a solid job of building the roster through the draft, and there aren’t that many glaring needs other than finding some blindside protection for Mahomes.
However, the doubters expect some more regression in 2025.
That has been the narrative surrounding the Chiefs for years, yet they still manage to end up on top, even if it’s not always easy or pretty.
