Trent Green in 2006: "What do you think about the Chiefs drafting Brodie Croyle in the 3rd round?". Trent: "I don't like it. I don't like it all. I'm here, we should have spent that pick on someone who can help us".
Alex Smith in 2017: "What do you think about drafting Pat Mahomes?". Alex: "He's a quality kid with a ton of talent. We're all competitive in the QB room and anything that makes us MORE competitive is a good thing".
Alex Smith may not be the most talented QB in the league. But he's a competitor, a winner and a class act. For me, as frustrated as I get with the missed plays, he's difficult not to like.
If Mahomes can combine Smith's attitude with his own natural talent, the Chiefs are going to be set for 10+ years.
