*****The Patrick Mahomes Thread*****
IT ****ING HAPPENED
OP UPDATE: Because of all the interest in this thread, I've place all of the video content of Patrick Mahomes II's college career, and draft day goodness into a single post that can be found here. Enjoy! Last edited by Dante84; 05-17-2017 at 09:40 AM.. |

Didn’t Curry also have several ankle injuries early in his career? I think he was still trying to prove that he could physically last in the league. I may be wrong about that though

Because as much as he desires it, his agent surely disagrees. I'd love to see it, but I can't expect it. It's not fair to him. |

Please explain how we are going to win a Superbowl without him...maybe we resign Alex ****ing Smith... You KEEP Mahomes no matter what. Having said that, I don't think the Chiefs are going to destroy their cap by signing him. The stars are aligned and he knows what's what. He'll do what's right to get paid and to make sure he's got a team around him that helps him get to a Superbowl... |

Well now I've seen it all.
Give him whatever he wants. Period. |

I get the impression he likes winning more that money...football is his hobby. |

Whatever he signs for will be cheap by the end of his first deal. It's the second one that will really get crazy.
Is there a limit on these things? Can we give him a 10 year deal now? |

If he wins championships, his endorsements dwarf his NFL salary. Popularity is way more profitable than skill.

Also consider how hard it is to blow all your money in KC.
Like you can only get so drunk. Not a lot of 2 grand bottle service places, even at the Plaza. |

Is it a Midwest thing to finally get the best of the best and want to go cheap with him?
It’d be great if he took a discount, sure - but if he wants a record setting contract, you give him a record setting contract. |

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that Pat's ancestral home is not anything like New York city. Unless he decides to start buying combines by the dozen, his fortunes will be safe. Last edited by Megatron96; 09-27-2019 at 06:42 PM.. |

The problem is Dak. He’s about to get $38-40m per year from the Cowboys. Mahomes’ agent is not going to allow him to take a big discount compared to that. The only way they do it is for really strong guaranteed money. $33m per year for 4 years fully guaranteed.

The guy is going to be insanely wealthy beyond his wildest dreams on endorsements alone. If anyone is going to see the longer term value in maximizing experiences and winning at the exclusion of immediately quantifiable wealth, it’s someone like him. That said, no one could begrudge the guy if he pushes for every dollar he deserves. It just wouldn’t shock me if he saw value beyond that. |
