Pro Football Focus' 2025 player rankings should a send clear message to rest of the NFL about Chiefs' roster

Pro Football Focus recently put out their 2025 player rankings by position.

The Kansas City Chiefs led the NFL with three players topping their respective position groups. Let's take a look at what PFF had to say about them.

QB Patrick Mahomes

"Mahomes still holds the top spot, but the margin has never been slimmer. His passing grade over the past two seasons sits at 86.0, a strong number but a step below the elite level we saw from 2018 through 2022. The supporting cast hasn't always helped, particularly at receiver, but it’s fair to say his otherworldly level of play we saw from him from 2018 to 2022 is starting to get further and further away in the rearview mirror. That said, no one blends poise, playmaking and postseason performance like Mahomes, which is why he remains at No. 1 entering 2025, even if the field is closer than ever."

DT Chris Jones

"What more is there to say about Chris Jones? The future first-ballot Hall of Famer was once again the highest-graded interior defender in the NFL in 2024 (90.2). That makes it 88.0-plus marks in seven of his nine NFL seasons. His 1.69 PFF WAR over the past three years is by far the most among interior defenders."

C Creed Humphrey

"Since stepping foot on an NFL field in 2021, Humphrey has not only been the most productive center but also the most productive offensive lineman in the NFL, period. His 2.05 PFF WAR over the past four seasons is the highest figure among all offensive linemen, and his 94.9 cumulative PFF overall grade ranks second, behind only Trent Williams."

PFF's rankings send a clear message about the Chiefs' roster

You guys know the drill. Every offseason a handful of media personalities and analysts predict the downfall of the Chiefs. It has yet to happen, and given that K.C. is the only team that has three players leading PFF's positional rankings, it's not likely to occur in 2025.

In 2024 the Chiefs proved they can maintain their winning ways even through adversity, which they had plenty of in regards to injuries. Sure, they fell short in Super Bowl LIX, but set a franchise record for most wins during the regular season with 15. The Chiefs may not win Super Bowl LX this coming February, but as usual, they'll certainly be in the mix.
