Chiefs trade up, pick Mansoor Delane at No. 6

Mansoor Delane wins best dressed. Modern but timeless. Great color. Bodes well for his transition to the NFL.

At the time of pick No. 6, there was a 90% chance Mansoor Delane would make it to pick No. 9 according to the Draft Day Predictor. Even if you think that number is a little strong, that's the hidden cost of trade-ups: there's a substantial chance the Chiefs gave up a 3 and a 5 for nothing!

Chiefs select CB Mansoor Delane with the No. 6 overall pick. He allowed 0 TDs and 0 penalties in 2025. The first unanimous All-American at LSU since Joe Burrow.

No. 6: Mansoor Delane, CB, LSU This was always the trade I expected to happen, with KC coming up with CLE. However, I didn’t think they’d move up for Delane, who I think is good, not great. Chiefs CB room is not good and Delane answers the most questions for them rn

Mansoor Delane, the consensus No. 1 CB in this class goes to the Chiefs, after trading up to No. 6.

The Chiefs fill one of their biggest needs, selecting LSU CB Mansoor Delane at No. 6.

Clemson decided to challenge Delane ten times. The results: one 19-yard catch, one interception. That was that. Delane was targeted just 23 times the rest of the season. He allowed a total of eight catches for 95 yards. miketanier.substack.com/i/193352134/...

Mansoor Delane was a unanimous All-American last year after tallying 13 passes defensed and two picks while allowing just 14 catches (and zero touchdowns!) on 357 coverage snaps. Also committed a grand total of zero penalties last year. LET’S GO!!!
