— I believe Patrick Mahomes is the Chiefs' QB1 from what I’ve heard, but Deshaun Watson makes sense as well. They’ll need to trade up for both. If they stay at 27, the one quarterback whom they could shockingly have interest in is Davis Webb of California. They’ve also shown interest in Nathan Peterman and Brad Kaaya, but likely don’t value either as top-two rounders.
Now, the writer of this got all of his info in the article from speaking to FO people and scouts at the combine. You can question the validity, but the Chiefs did meet with all of the players mentioned at the combine.
If this report is accurate, the Chiefs could indeed be on the path to Patrick Mahomes or Deshaun Watson holding up their jersey in 7 weeks in Philadelphia. [Reply]

How many kids at his age have succeeded in the nfl from the get go? Mechanics are far from ideal. Decision making reflects his arrogance. [Reply]

I think the NFL has highly overestimated the ability of rookies to come in and start at QB.
People wonder why there are so few good QB's in the NFL right now.
Well, no one is patient enough to groom one anymore. [Reply]

He would sit a year anyway. Alex gets one more year from Andy. Besides, he isn't dumb as fuck like that turd Lynch...who STILL can't grasp an offense and out of desperation may be forced to start. [Reply]

If we are all to embrace your "none of us know Jack and Shit" premise... what difference does such an opinion make?
My Jack and Shit opinion is that Mahomes is a mess.. and probably would take longer than 1 year to become anything more than a wildly inconsistent QB.
I think many... including draft "experts"... will and probably have already agreed that Mahomes will take a long time to get right.. if at all. [Reply]

You morons say that stuff about ALL the QBs though. It's ALWAYS... NEXT YEAR BOYS!!!!! Except for those "HEY so and so in the 6th out of Buttfuck State may wet our whistle!" [Reply]

From where? Draft a qb and give him season to sit and learn is the best we can do. We won't have a QB ready to take over from an experience stand point in 2018 unless we get another teams trash again. No way in hell should we try that for hundreth time. [Reply]

Seems kind of silly then to turn and stress over these opinions, no? [Reply]

Who's stressing? I just find opposing fans posing as Chief fans over an average QB to be really creepy. [Reply]

Who is wondering that? I don't really see any difference in the number of good QBs.
The names you once recognized are just getting replaced by Carr, Mariota, Cousins, and possibly Prescott. There's still Brady, Brees, Rodgers, Roethlisberger, Ryan, Wilson, Luck. Then you have guys like Rivers, Stafford, and Newton who aren't having as great years as they've had in the past that I would still gladly take on the Chiefs over the comfortably mediocre bullshit they have been willing to back up the Brinks truck for.
