Kansas City sent wide receiver Skyy Moore and a 2027 seventh-round pick to San Francisco for a 2027 sixth-round pick. The future selections remain unresolved, but the 49ers already received a full season of special-teams production from Moore, including 907 kickoff-return yards and 291 punt-return yards before he moved on in 2026.

Trade Analysis

The Deal

Kansas City agreed on August 20, 2025 to send Skyy Moore and a 2027 seventh-round pick to San Francisco for the 49ers' 2027 sixth-round selection. San Francisco formally announced the acquisition the following day. The package is a one-round future-pick upgrade for Kansas City paired with a fresh opportunity for Moore.

San Francisco's Return

Moore did not become a major offensive receiver, finishing 2025 with five catches for 87 yards. His special-teams work was much more important. He returned 33 kickoffs for 907 yards, a 27.5-yard average, and added 291 yards on 25 punt returns. Green Bay's 2026 signing announcement noted that his kickoff-return average ranked sixth in the NFL and his punt-return average ranked seventh.

Kansas City's Return

The Chiefs cleared a receiver who had fallen down their depth chart and improved their position in the 2027 draft from the seventh round to the sixth. That is sensible asset management, but the actual value of the incoming selection cannot be graded fully until the 2027 draft and the pick's downstream path are known.

Value Over Time

San Francisco received one season of meaningful return production without surrendering a premium asset. Moore then left for Green Bay in 2026, limiting the long-term gain. Kansas City still owns the potentially better future selection, so the trade remains partly open.

Final Verdict

San Francisco leads with a B because Moore provided immediate special-teams value plus the incoming seventh-rounder. Kansas City earns a C+ for creating a future-round upgrade, with its final grade still constrained by the unresolved 2027 pick.

The future draft swap remains unresolved, so the current comparison rests on Moore's 2025 work. His 907 kickoff-return yards and 291 punt-return yards gave San Francisco a full season of specialist production before he moved on, creating the only realized value to date.
