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]

People read into things that in reality just not there. He has been with Alex Smith last four years and developed that first name basis. As for Patrick he is a kid to Andy and Andy wants to mold him into a man. I've been called kid by my elders. He could be calling him Billy the Kid. It's just what he is calling him for now. [Reply]

Alex has earned the first name respect. Mahomes has not, yet. He is a rookie after all.

Henceforth he shall be called Kid Patrick. [Reply]

This isn't at all meant to be inflamatory in the Mahomes thread. Do you, bro! [Reply]
