The Kansas City Chiefs made the first move up the board of the 2026 NFL Draft, swapping three places with the Cleveland Browns to select LSU cornerback Mansoor Delane on Thursday night.
The Chiefs moved from No. 9 to No. 6 overall, while the Browns received a third-rounder (74th overall) and a fifth-rounder (148th) in addition to the ninth overall pick from Kansas City.
Cleveland drafted Utah offensive tackle Spencer Fano in the No. 9 slot, the first offensive lineman taken.
The Chiefs, coming off their first missed postseason since 2014, had a need at cornerback after dealing two-time All-Pro corner Trent McDuffie to the Los Angeles Rams last month.
Delane, the first cornerback selected Thursday, was a unanimous All-American in 2025 after recording two interceptions, 11 pass breakups and 45 tackles in 11 games for LSU. He spent his first three college seasons at Virginia Tech before transferring ahead of the 2025 season and finished his college career with eight interceptions, 27 pass breakups, 191 tackles and seven tackles for loss.
