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]

Think I heard SFs qb just recently got verified on Twitter.
Does Kansas city have the face of the NFL right now? We know he's exciting to watch. But right now he's a pretty damn good spokesperson to a younger audience the NFL sorely needs. Hard to believe.
Deshaun Watson has a huge Twitter following. 1.25 million, compared to 290,000 for Mahomes. That's the only one I can think of really. [Reply]

But I do believe having a qb the NFL really loves can earn us some advantages.
Fortnite is the key here, it's as underrated as it gets. :-) [Reply]

Mahomes was a no-name gunslinger from Texas Tech
People love how Watson beat Bama, they love his story, overcoming struggles, etc. Nice guy, great college QB
Lamar has more followers than Mahomes as well, for now [Reply]
Major General - Preparations have begun for the horse riding Hoosier men. Their acclaimed captain, his beard, sidearm and squirrel oil are feared by some, but not by us. We know the hopeless despair caused by the devastation of the cannon and thus remain resolute. - Capt. Mahomes
Dearest mother — Our victory frolicking has ceased. We must now begin our march to Kansas City to battle a unit of such great stature, every member has been granted the title of Chief. Our path has been long and winding, but I have never seen the men’s spirits higher. — Andrew
