The Cleveland Browns and Kansas City Chiefs are reportedly in deep discussions regarding a trade for the No. 6 overall pick in the NFL Draft, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
Per the report, the potential swap would allow the Chiefs to jump up to the sixth selection, while the Browns would move back three spots to the No. 9 overall position. Sources indicate that the two front offices have been engaged in "deep" talks as they look to finalize the terms of the exchange. The move would likely involve additional draft capital to facilitate the jump into the top six for Kansas City.
With the draft clock ticking, this trade remains one to watch over the next several minutes. The Browns currently hold the No. 6 pick, but a move back to No. 9 would still keep them within the top ten while potentially adding assets. For the Chiefs, moving up indicates a specific target high on their draft board that they are aggressive in pursuing.
