With the 58th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Kansas City Chiefs selected Nick Bolton, Linebacker, Missouri!
As a big Missouri fan, I am extremely biased about my evaluation of Bolton, but there is no shame in this pick at all. I’ll be honest I didn’t expect the Chiefs to actually pick Bolton—or at least to draft him that high—but that won’t hurt his grade at all.
