Trade 1 of 2
Carolina Panthers and Kansas City Chiefs
Carolina acquired Ihmir Smith-Marsette and Kansas City's 2025 seventh-round pick for Carolina's own 2025 seventh-rounder. Smith-Marsette supplied immediate depth, return ability and some offensive touches during the 2023 season, while the eventual pick difference favored Kansas City only modestly. Because the Panthers received a usable player in addition to a late selection, Carolina produced the slightly better total return.
Assets Received
Carolina Panthers
- Player Ihmir Smith-Marsette
- Pick 2025 7th round pick (247th overall subsequently traded, Tommy Akingbesote)

Kansas City Chiefs and Pittsburgh Steelers
Kansas City moved from No. 164 to No. 156 in the 2025 fifth round and selected linebacker Jeffrey Bassa, giving Pittsburgh No. 164 and No. 226. Bassa played all 17 games as a rookie and recorded 15 combined tackles with a forced fumble. That is a useful first season, but Pittsburgh received two contributors and more defensive production from Yahya Black, so the early returns favor the Steelers.
Assets Received
Kansas City Chiefs
- Pick 2025 fifth-round pick (No. 156, Jeffrey Bassa)
Pittsburgh Steelers
- Pick 2025 fifth-round pick (No. 164, Yahya Black)
- Pick 2025 seventh-round pick (No. 226, Carson Bruener)
