NFL Draft *****2021 NFL DRAFT THREAD - NO SPOILERS***** - Page 146

Version 2021 - REVENGE TOUR EDITION

Let's ****ing do this.

Rules for once the draft begins:

No spoiled picks in this thread, all weekend. This means that as tweets are leaking picks a few minutes before the selection is announced live, you don't post it in this thread (ex: embedded tweets), reference it in this thread (ex: Joe Slapdick says it's So and So to Green Bay) or hint at it (ex: "it's a RB!").
Don't be a dick.

Otherwise, have fun, talk shit, freak out and lose your goddamned minds. It's Draft Weekend. The hot takes in these threads are so funny. I'll also be starting player threads for each of our picks as they are made, with videos and notable stats/takes in the OP. Pure knee jerk gold to reference in the future.

Here is our current pick order:

Round 2 - Pick No. 58: Nick Bolton, LB, Missouri
Round 2 - Pick No. 63: Creed Humphrey, C, Oklahoma
Round 4 - Pick No. 144: Joshua Kaindoh, Edge, Florida State
Round 5 - Pick No. 162: Noah Gray, TE, Duke
Round 5 - Pick No. 181: Cornell Powell, WR, Clemson
Round 6 - Pick No. 226: Trey Smith, G, Tennessee

Here is a list of the prospects the Chiefs have shown interest in this year.

Again, Niemann and Bolton don't even play the same position.

You're going to see a lot of Niemann this year, just like last year, as they groom Bolton to take over for Hitchens next year.

I watched every game he played in college. He got washed out towards the end of last year when Mizzou's D was so depleted they were using the guy that started the year as the #1QB as a safety, but prior to that he was as good/better than any LB in the conference with a knack for big plays, despite the line that played in front of him sucking.

Gay plays Wilson's position, Bolton plays Hitchens' position. This doesn't affect Niemann at all right now unless they start moving people in training camp.

They didn’t draft Bolton and Gay in the 2nd to keep trotting Niemann out there. I promise.
