The Chiefs have pick No. 31 in the 2023 NFL draft, the final pick in the first round. The reigning Super Bowl champions have had just one pick inside the Top 30 in the last five drafts, a fair trade-off considering their tremendous success on the field. Most of general manager Brett Veach’s focus has been on the defensive side of the ball the last few drafts. Case in point: The Chiefs used both of their first-round picks in 2022 on defenders and selected five defensive players in their first six picks last year. What position will the Chiefs target with the 31st pick in the first round this year? Oddsmakers at SI Sportsbook list offensive line and defensive lineman as the co-favorites to be Kansas City’s selection. Those positions both have odds of +175, which is far from a lock.
