Travis Kelce is very happy about the Kansas City Chiefs' first-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. 

With the 32nd overall pick, the Chiefs selected Ohio State tackle Josh Simmons, filling a big need on the offensive line. The 6-foot-5, 317 pound tackle is coming off a season ending injury, having torn his patellar tendon during the Buckeyes' 2024 season that resulted in a National Championship. 

Some are worried how he might be coming off that injury, but the Kelce brothers aren't in that group. 

“He's one of the guys I actually watched a little bit. I absolutely love this guy on tape. The way he moves reminds me a lot of some high level players. The way he bends, he plays with his a** low to the ground. His arms only say 33 (inches), but it feels like he has much bigger length than that. He is big, he's strong, he moves people, he's an outstanding pass blocker.

"This and the Eagles first round picks were two of the biggest steals in the draft, and I'm not just saying that because they are both our teams. I really think if Josh Simmons doesn't tear his patellar tendon, he's the first tackle off the board most likely. The fact that the Chiefs got him at 32 could be unbelievable value if he comes back from the knee injury."

Travis loved hearing that, clapping while shouting out Chiefs general manager Brett Veach. 

"I don't think were gonna have to wait and see. Signed, sealed, delivered. This guy's gonna be a Hall of Famer," Travis added. 

"If he comes back from the knee, there's a good chance. This guy's very impressive," Jason responded. 

But, Travis wasn't having any of this. 

"If? Something tells me he's already there," Kelce stated. 

In the eyes of the Kelce brothers, the Chiefs got a good one in the draft, so let's just see what he does when he gets on the field.
