Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 3
Miami sent Kansas City five draft picks for Tyreek Hill and received an immediate superstar: 340 catches, 4,733 yards and 27 touchdowns through four Dolphins seasons, including consecutive 1,700-yard campaigns. Kansas City used Hill-related capital in several moves, including the trade up for Trent McDuffie, a two-time champion and All-Pro who later brought four more picks in 2026. Both sides prospered, but Kansas City's continuing asset tree earns a slight edge.
Trade 2 of 3
Detroit moved up to No. 96 for Brodric Martin and sent Arizona picks Nos. 122, 139 and 168. Martin appeared in only six games with one start over his first two active seasons. Arizona's return produced guard Jon Gaines II, quarterback Clayton Tune and linebacker Owen Pappoe, giving the Cardinals several roster contributors. The package was not spectacular, but it clearly outperformed Detroit's limited result.
Trade 3 of 3
Kansas City moved from No. 63 to No. 55 in 2023 for Rashee Rice and also received pick 194, used on Keondre Coburn. Rice has 156 catches for 1,797 yards and 14 touchdowns in 28 regular-season games and was a major contributor to the Chiefs’ Super Bowl LVIII run. Detroit received three picks and moved them again in later transactions, but Kansas City obtained the clear impact player from the exchange.
