So you have 2 options - physically limited, polished QBs like Peterman or physically skilled quarterbacks that need to be heavily coached like Mahomes.
Or option C: just getting butt-****ing lucky and hoping that the entire NFL misses on a guy that was both polished and physically skilled. Good luck with option C, gents.
At some point you have to pick your path, spin the wheel and take your chances lest you think there will come a time that A) a truly premier talent is available and B) a team would actually allow us to trade up for it. Because that's the other issue - Sam Darnold, if he is what people claim, will not be a Chief because either a team that sits #1 overall will take him and be unwilling to trade out of that spot or B) that team will be willing to move out, but not that far back so we still won't be players even if we do give up our entire draft and another 1st.
We purport to have one of the most gifted QB teachers/staffs in the NFL on our payroll - !@$#ing use 'em. Get the guy with the max tools and teach him how to use them.
That guy is Mahomes.

To the whole darn post. This is our year to make the move on a QB. Don't settle for "best" value. Go get the QB. Team is nearly built. Add to it in the future.
