This is pure speculation based on a dinner conversation I had with a scout from a different team following Notre Dame’s pro day. His team believes Andy Reid and the Chiefs love the polarizing Kizer, who looked like a potential No. 1 overall pick in 2015 but regressed in ’16.

I could buy this. Wouldn't be surprised if all the attention on Mahomes is bs and they really love Kizer or Watson. Dorsey always plays it close to the vest.

Would you be happy with Kizer or Webb?

I'll be happy if they take a QB in the first 2 rounds period. I know they aren't going to settle for somebody who isn't their guy if they make that kind of investment, so I'll give Dorsey (and Reid) the benefit of the doubt, though I do have my preferences.

I still think Kizer's a better fit for AZ and Mahomes for KC.

If Andy's on board with Kizer, so am I. Tough nut to crack but there's some Big Ben potential in the kid. Man, you've gotta worry about the sporadic accuracy and potential problems reading schemes.

Frames like his have gotten many a head coach fired - you fall in love with the frame and forget that the kid may just not be able to play.

That's basically all it comes down to for me. I love the size and arm talent, so if Reid thinks he can turn him into a franchise QB, I'm all in. He does scare the shit out of me though.
