BALLER MOVE: Target ~95
CURRENT ADP: ~105
ANALYSIS: Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was able to digest the NFL game from the sidelines for 99 percent of last season, learning from veteran signal caller Alex Smith and one of the top coaching staffs in the league that is chock full of offensive minds. He did get to start one game in 2017, throwing for 284 yards and an interception against the Broncos, showing that he can be an impact player if given the time. With Smith now in Washington, Mahomes has the opportunity to break out for the Chiefs.
Mahomes has more talent surrounding him than Meghan Markle has royal subjects surrounding her. Mahomes has arguably the second-best tight end in the NFL in Travis Kelce as his go-to guy, greyhounds Tyreek Hill and Sammy Watkins as his wide receivers, and 2017 rushing champion Kareem Hunt in the backfield. Oh, and he has Andy Reid and his staff coaching him, and all they did was help guide Smith to the best year of his career in 2017. The fantasy value meter will be rising from this point on for this ultra-talented youngster.
