There is a common theme in most of these trades with giving up a draft pick. Draft picks are a very valued commodity for teams in which they are able to bring in new guys on team friendly deals each season.
The other common part is trading outside of the AFC (with the exception of Ramsey). Giving away players or draft picks to a team you compete with yearly, especially in the playoffs, is something that most teams would try and avoid if possible.
If the Kansas City Chiefs are serious about making a deep postseason run and getting into the Super Bowl, these are the kinds of acquisitions and guys you go after to reach these goals. With little depth surrounding mostly the cornerback, it is easy to tell which position they need to attack the hardest.
