The move was a part of a major defensive overhaul this offseason, as the Chiefs lost a pair of starting cornerbacks as they look to get younger and cheaper with the draft.

Kansas City also lost safety Bryan Cook, linebacker Leo Chenal, and a couple of other pieces this offseason, which makes this draft very imperative to their success in 2026 and beyond. With some extra draft capital from the McDuffie trade, let’s look at the full details and see what to look forward to for the Chiefs. Original terms of the Chiefs’ trade of Trent McDuffie Los Angeles Rams receive: CB Trent McDuffie Kansas City Chiefs receive: 2026 first-round pick (No.

29), 2026 fifth-round pick (No. 169), 2026 sixth-round pick (No. 210), and 2027 third-round pick That means the deal won’t be finalized until a year from now unless Kansas City uses the third-rounder as part of a 2026 NFL Draft trade.

Who did the Chiefs draft with the picks acquired in the 2026 NFL Draft? The Chiefs picked 29th overall and they selected Clemson DT Peter Woods. This article was published during the first round, and we will update when the picks are used in the fifth and sixth rounds.
