How big of a meltdown will happen when we don't pick a qb in the first 2 rounds?? Server gone crash!!!

It will be historic like it is every year.

This fanbase is desperately wanting and needing hope. Im tired of being a bottom 5 franchise

:shake:

Not sure I'm on board with currently being a bottom 5 franchise. But I'm so over not drafting and developing our own qb. Maybe we're just cursed!

I'll do some dirty things if we draft Mahomes

Diva.

There's always next year, right?

Now THIS was the most beautiful and inspiring post of the entire thread.

Well done.

Mahomes will unite us all. The true Dark Peniight

I just don't see a 21 year old Mahomes coming into camp and overtaking Smith, even after 1 season. If drafted he's at a minimum a 2 year project. He clearly doesn't have the maturity that Prescott, Luck, or Wilson had coming out of the draft. As the analysts have said, his decision-making is far from ideal. Sure he can sit behind a protected pocket and launch a ball like his rocket-arm baseball daddy taught him to but you have to question why a quarterback needs to be flexing his muscles when his team struggled all year and finished 5-7??

Our odds of success are better waiting for a 1st rounder in 2018

This type of thinking will keep KC in its perpetual QB rut. If the Chiefs believe Mahomes can start in 1-2 years and be a SB level franchise QB, they need to trade up whatever they have to in order to get him this year, or take him at 27 if they are lucky enough to see him fall.

They need to have a guy ready to take over ideally in 2018 to get Smith's contract off the books. The best time to win the Super Bowl these days is when you have a good QB on a rookie contract. Looking at the Chiefs current roster, the time is now to strike assuming you want your QBOTF to have a redshirt year.

The worst defense in football giving up 46 points a game probably didn't have anything to do with their record.


His arm talent has been compared to Favre. I've learned to trust Dorsey. If he thinks Mahomes is the guy then I'm all in

if the chiefs are drafting a qb in round 1 or 2 NEXT year, this means alex will have an extension on his contract. they HAVE to find the next kc qb this year. no one can say if these qb's in the draft are a bust or not. only until they get into the film rooms, and the field can one make that assertion.

if a 2017 pick is a bust, THEN you go after a replacement for alex via free agency. i assume by that point cousins will be available for 45 million a year :D

I think the Mahomes fans need to ask themselves if they're willing to keep Smith as QB for 2 years until Mahomes is ready. Because yeah, he may be ready next year, but with the severe mechanics issues he has, I don't think just 1 year on the bench will be enough for him.

I don't want to keep Smith past this year so I don't want Mahomes. That chance he won't be ready in 2018 scares me too much.

Agree with your second paragraph. I doubt Mahommes is or should be the guy, but we'll see what they think.

It's the right time to get that QBotF... just not loving the draft class. Still, throwing out a day 2 pick on a QB would not prevent them from geting a rd 1 guy in 2018.
