T he Kansas City Chiefs are entering the 2025 NFL Draft with the intention of heavily investing in their offense. After a lackluster performance in the 2024 campaign, head coach Andy Reid has his sights set on acquiring an elite receiver and running back to strengthen the offense led by Patrick Mahomes .

In 2024, the Chiefs' offense ranked 15th in points per game with 22.6 and 17th in yards per game with 327.6. The defense was a key factor in the team's journey to Super Bowl LIX , but the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles highlighted the offense's shortcomings.

Most analysts agree that the team will select a tackle in the first round. However, Reid and general manager Brett Veach are not neglecting other areas and have already met with two of the best offensive players in the 2025 class: running back Cam Skattebo and receiver Isaiah Bond .

Offense is the Chiefs' priority

According to the Chiefs Blitz profile on X (formerly Twitter), Kansas City had formal meetings with Skattebo and Bond in recent days. Although detailed information is scarce, both players have received high evaluations ahead of the 2025 NFL Draft .

The NFL's evaluation suggests that Skattebo will be a strong backup with the potential to become a starter. The running back accumulated 4,386 yards, 709 carries, and 43 touchdowns during his college career at Sacramento State and Arizona State.

Bond played for both Alabama and Texas, opting to skip his final year of eligibility to declare for the draft. With 99 receptions for 1,428 yards and 10 touchdowns in college, the young receiver is considered a valuable starter for any team in the future.

Where would Skattebo and Bond fit in?

Skattebo would serve as a luxury backup to running back Isiah Pacheco and a safety valve for Reid , whose ground attack was severely diminished in 2024 after his starter was injured. Bond, on the other hand, may face challenges in securing a spot in the already crowded receiver room.

This was just a preliminary meeting between the players and the team. With almost two months until the draft, a lot can still happen, and even the best mock drafts cannot predict exactly what the team will do when the moment of truth arrives.
