The Kansas City Chiefs have enjoyed great success with late round linemen ever since Andy Reid joined the team in 2013 as head coach, and now the Chiefs hope to strike gold again with Illinois offensive lineman Nick Allegretti.
The Chiefs selected Allegretti as their sixth and final selection in the 2019 NFL Draft (barring a surprise move). Allegretti was the second pick in the seventh round of the draft and represents another late round offensive lineman for a team that’s picked guys in the trenches like clockwork around this exact spot.
Allegretti comes with plenty of experience and a good frame at 6’4, 310 pounds.
