Kansas City traded with the Cleveland Browns to move up to the No. 6 overall pick and selected LSU cornerback Mansoor Delane. Delane, born December 15, 2003, was a unanimous All-American in 2025 after recording 13 passes defensed, two interceptions, allowing just 14 catches and zero touchdowns on 357 coverage snaps while committing zero penalties. The Chiefs add a lockdown press-man corner in Delane to give defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo a top-tier boundary cover who can shadow elite receivers and alter opposing passing plans.
