Everyone in the league now says they would have picked Mahomes. Even the Bears now claim that they picked Mahomes, but their card was misread. [Reply]

You base any of this stupid post on what? Name a QB Payton truly developed. [Reply]

Okay. So would you say he's worth the 12th overall pick plus a 2nd and some change?
"No deal!!!!"
Exactly. "Mahomes is going to unquestionably be THE best player in the NFL for the next 15-20 years. Should we move up from 12 to secure such an invaluable player? Nah. Let's stay where we are and just draft a corner." [Reply]

I mean, that DOES seem like something a future Broncos coach would do… [Reply]

:-) As long as the Chiefs can keep Mahomes upright, they can replace the pieces around him. This has been proven. Reid isn't going anywhere anytime soon. He's got his sight sets on a few more titles. All you can do is watch and dream that Denver had it as good. Oh, and say really stupid stuff. [Reply]

Yeah, unfortunately for everyone else... KC is in that early Patriots stage with Brady. Mahomes is phenomenal and does not need to be surrounded by a team of A players. [Reply]

Cool. We're actually just going to leave Russ alone and let him implode the offense by himself. Getting him hurt and putting in a backup makes things more difficult for us. [Reply]
