You don't trade up into the top 10 to sit that player on the bench for years. He's going to be on the bench for a year tops.

Have a good cry. Take as long as you need to get it all out. Patrick Mahomes has taken a shit over your precious Alex Smith kingdom you set up in your mind. Nothing could take it down. It was boring and consistent, and every morning the sun greeted you with Alex's dopey howdy-doody smile. It's gone now. The QB death cult raped its women and shit all over the rose bushes. They won. But you can still join them. It will be fine. It might even be fun. You might enjoy the experience of a real franchise QB at the helm. The excitement. Being able to watch the guy grow into the hero we've been wanting all this time. But it means you're going to have to let go of Alex Smith. He was a bad ruler of your kingdom. He allowed this QB death cult to come in and do this. Let him go. He's not your friend. Pat Mahomes is your new friend. |

Now if Alex's large salary in 2018 means the management feels they need to get rid of that salary, then I can understand throwing Pat into the fire in Year 2. At least he would have about 16 months of training and learning with the Chiefs organization by that point. |

Mahomes won't take 2 years to learn the playbook. They threw everything at him on his private visit and he didn't have any problems.

![]() A pitiful and pathetic wet dream created by the weakest of minds. Excellent post, Clay. It is good that the franchise has rejected Smith and his cadre of simpletons much in the same manner that we fought the war of the idiot true fan, defeated him, and sent their "champion" General Bob Dole to the ash heap.

Here's what I'm saying:
Dorsey said that in the QB meetings the coaches put the guys up on the board, drilled them with play after play, tons of different terminology, had them spit it back out as they would in a huddle, etc.... and he followed that up by saying the coaches ranked Mahomes #1 in that department. So, we are talking about the most physically gifted QB in the draft combining that ability with apparent smarts and sharpness that surpassed the other QBs. To me, if we are considering that information, I think the physical fixes are what need to be focused on most in terms of getting him ready to play by 2018. I believe the FO is clearly confident that 2PM will put in the work to get the mental side of things down quickly. |

This draft featured Peterman, who had a graduate degree, and Dobbs, who had a degree in aerospace engineering (which actually isn't any more difficult to work in than other STEM fields). Webb did a good job promoting himself as a relentless workaholic when it came to football terminology and plays... film room junkie... Andy Reid knows better than to give a shit about that crap. That's not the kind of "smart" that a QB needs. What Mahomes has is the RIGHT kind of smart that matters in playing the position. Can't wait to see Peterman go up in flames. Out of the NFL in 2 years. That's my prediction. |

I think it's funny that threebagdouche thinks Geno Smith lovers are the same as Matt Cassel lovers. That shows all you need to know that he is a complete ****ing moron.

Most of the "experts" I listen to say Mahomes needs to sit two years. After watching Andy's interview after drafting him I thinking it is possible that they sit him that long. I bet he said, "he's got a long way to go" at least ten times. I wouldn't dress him at all in 2017 and I would have him back up Alex in 2018. We need to take this slow. He needs a lot of work.
