Because of all the interest in this thread, I've place all of the video content of Patrick Mahomes II's college career, and draft day goodness into a single post that can be found here. Enjoy! [Reply]
.@Chiefs@PatrickMahomes5 dropped back 8X in his first action in the first quarter and was hit 3X hard. The type of hits that no one wants to see any QB take. Pass protection has got to be a major priority this week in practice. #BaldyBreakdownspic.twitter.com/0vcTvkN7Ec

On paper, we shouldn’t see a box heavier than 6 guys on almost every snap. But if guys like Fisher, Erving, or Schwartz are going to get their ass whooped half the time, it’s really going to cap what they can do as a unit.
I say get Erving the hell out of there and cross your fingers from there.
Bench Erving and replace him with Ehinger or Witzmann. Half of the problems will go away.
That's not necessarily a compliment to Ehinger or Witzmann. It's the Mike McGlynn-effect, where an OG can be SO bad, that his replacement who is just kind of meh makes things exponentially better for the OL and the offense. [Reply]

Bashaud Breeland would also be an upgrade at LG. [Reply]

Don’t worry.
If teams think they can stack the box and blitz us I’m thr regular season, Pat will rape whole villiages with the deep ball.
Can’t blitz and not get raped by our receivers and Kelce... [Reply]
