2026 NFL Draft Trades Tracker, Grades: Cowboys Trade Up to No. 11

A total of 257 picks will be made in the 2026 NFL Draft, but there will also be several trades made throughout the three days as well. As some expect the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft to potentially set the record for the most trades made in a first round ever, let's keep track of all the deals made throughout the opening rounds. We'll also have grades on each trade from our Eric D. Williams. Browns trade No. 6 to Chiefs Chiefs get: No. 6 overall pickBrowns get: No. 9 overall pick, No. 74 overall pick, No. 148 overall pick The Chiefs moved up three spots in the NFL Draft, giving up a third round pick and a fifth round pick. The Chiefs selected LSU CB Mansoor Delane. Delane was one of the top cornerbacks available. The Browns selected Utah OL Spencer Fano. Williams: Kansas City general manager Brett Veach said he expected a lot of trades in this year's draft. And with 10 picks in this year's draft, including two in the first round and a rare pick in the Top-10, it's not surprising that the Chiefs moved up to fill an obvious need in LSU cornerback Mansoor Delane. Kansas City needed replacements in the secondary after trading Trent McDuffie to the Rams, along with losing cornerback Jaylen Watson to Los Angeles in free agency and safety Byran Cook to the Bengals in free agency. The top-rated cornerback in this year's draft, Mansoor gives defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo a developmental piece to help fill the talent void in the back end defensively. And the Chiefs didn't have to give up much to make the trade work. Cleveland had nine picks heading into this year's draft, including one of six teams that had two picks in the first round. The Browns need offensive line and receiver help. And with several talented options at both of those position groups, the Browns wisely traded down, picking up two selections in the process to give them 11 picks in this year's draft. Cleveland used that pick from Kansas City at No. 9 to select Spencer Fano, the first offensive lineman taken in this year's draft as the Browns continue to focus on upgrading the trenches. Chiefs grade: B+Browns grade: A- Dolphins trade No. 11 to Cowboys Cowboys get: No. 11 overall pick Dolphins get: No. 12 overall, No. 177 overall, No. 180 overall The Cowboys selected S Caleb Downs.
