This page lists all the 2025 Trades for the Kansas City Chiefs. I’ve listed all of the NFL Free Agent Signing Grades here, which included the trades. Because I’ve begun posting polls for the trades, I thought it would make sense to list just the NFL trades here, so archiving the voting would be easier.

August 2025 – Trades
49ers acquire WR Skyy Moore from Chiefs for swap of third-day picks
The 49ers had a ton of injuries last year, and it appears as though history is repeating itself. Excluding Ricky Pearsall, every receiver on the roster is dealing with some sort of injury. San Francisco desperately needed help at the position, so trading for a receiver makes sense, especially at effectively no cost.
The problem is that Skyy Moore isn’t much of a receiver. He was a huge bust at the position for Kansas City. He has good return ability, but he’s a non-factor on offense. He’s still young, however, so perhaps the 49ers will be able to mold him into a viable wideout. I wouldn’t hold my breath though.
The Chiefs, conversely, are deep at receiver, so it made sense for them to deal Moore. I’d say this is an even trade that makes sense for both sides.
Grade for 49ers – B
Grade for Chiefs – B

March 2025 – Trades
Bears acquire G Joe Thuney from Chiefs for 4th-round pick
The Bears entered the offseaon with a huge need at guard. In a span of just 24 hours, they’ve managed to find two upgrades at the position, trading a sixth-round pick for Jonah Jackson and then a fourth-round selection for Joe Thuney.
This is a perplexing trade, but not for Chicago. Jackson is an uncertain option because of his dubious injury history, but Thuney is as great as they come at guard. Not only is he an All-Pro guard; he can also play tackle well in a pinch. He’s 32, but interior linemen have been known to perform well into their mid-30s. Massively upgrading Caleb Williams’ protection for a fourth-round pick is a slam dunk.
Meanwhile, this deal makes no sense for the Chiefs. How did they watch Patrick Mahomes run for his life in the Super Bowl and think, “Let’s trade our best offensive lineman?” Sure, the Chiefs aren’t in the best cap situation, but they could have traded/cut someone else or restructured some deals to prevent Mahomes’ already-shoddy protection from getting much worse.
Grade for Bears – A+
Grade for Chiefs – F
