Ravens Agree to Trade OT Diego Pounds to the Chiefs
The Ravens are turning an undrafted rookie into draft capital as they continue dealing before the 53-man roster deadline, sources said.
- On Saturday, the Baltimore Ravens traded offensive tackle Diego Pounds to the Kansas City Chiefs, bolstering the Chiefs' offensive line depth ahead of Sunday's roster cutdown.
- With teams required to trim rosters to 53 players by Sunday, the undrafted rookie from Ole Miss received a change of scenery before the NFL's universal deadline.
- Compensation for the deal is contingent on Kansas City's available picks at season's end, potentially yielding a Day 3 2027 or 2028 selection for Baltimore, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported.
- The transaction marked the Ravens' second trade of the day, following their decision to send defensive tackle C.J. Okoye to the New York Giants.
- Pro Football Focus ranked the 330-pound tackle as one of their highest-graded rookies this preseason, validating his potential despite going undrafted in April.
