This move will help the Chiefs balance out their battery of picks on Day 3 of the 2025 NFL draft. Before making this deal with the Eagles, Kansas City only had four picks to make on the final day of the Annual Player Selection Meeting, three of which were set to be made in the seventh round.

Their initial four picks — Ohio State tackle Josh Simmons (first round), Tennessee defensive lineman Omarr Norman-Lott (second), Louisville edge Ashton Gillotte (third) and Cal cornerback Nohl Williams (third) — all occupy those spots.
