Cleveland Browns and Kansas City Chiefs

Kansas City Chiefs Win Tier: major Confidence: high

Kansas City moved down from No. 21 to No. 26 in the 2011 draft and added the 70th pick, sending Cleveland the selection used on Phil Taylor. The Chiefs took Jonathan Baldwin at 26 and Justin Houston at 70. Baldwin was a major miss, but Houston became a four-time Pro Bowler and one of the league's premier pass rushers. Taylor gave Cleveland useful early seasons, yet Houston's career makes Kansas City the clear winner.

  • Pick 2011 1st round pick (26th overall, Jonathan Baldwin)
