Chiefs Day 3 picks: When does Kansas City pick next in 2024 NFL Draft?

Let's look at the picks remaining in the final four rounds for the Kansas City Chiefs in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Part of the shadow side of winning consecutive Super Bowls is that Chiefs Kingdom is used to watching and waiting until every NFL Draft round is largely come and gone by the time general manager Brett Veach is able to make his pick.

Fortunately, Veach is so good at his job that he ends up putting together strong rookie classes even with the odds stacked against him.

This year, like most in the Chiefs current run of success, features plenty of later draft picks once again situated at the 32nd overall selection in each of the draft's seven rounds. And as we head into Saturday of the 2024 NFL Draft, that means the Chiefs will have to wait quite some time before making their first of four selections on the afternoon.

The good news is the Chiefs are more than lucky in the latter rounds of the draft. They've proven by now that in-depth scouting and clear communication with their coaching staff has given them a leg up on the competition, allowing them to unearth gems in places where other teams struggle to do so.

From defensive end Mike Danna in the fifth to right guard Trey Smith and running back Isiah Pacheco to cornerbacks like Joshua Williams, L'Jarius Sneed, and Jaylen Watson, the Chiefs have gotten a lot of mileage out of their day 3 selections in the past few years. This year, the Chiefs will hope for more contributors with the four picks they have yet to make.

Here are the picks that the Chiefs own going into the final four rounds in Detroit:

• Fourth Round - No. 131 overall
• Fifth Round - No. 159 (via DAL)
• Fifth Round - No. 173
• Seventh Round - No. 221 (via CAR)
