Detroit Lions and Kansas City Chiefs

Kansas City Chiefs Win Tier: standard Confidence: high

Kansas City acquired safety William White from Detroit in July 1994 for a conditional 1996 third-round pick that became No. 91. White started 14 games for the Chiefs in his first season and remained with the club for three years. Detroit later paired No. 91 with its first-round pick to move up for Reggie Brown. Both sides found value, but Kansas City's direct veteran production earns a slight edge.
