Cleveland Browns… were players careers die
Answer: It doesn't matter. I wish them well. Love to Brett Veach, Andy Reid and their team. Good work ! Go Chiefs.
This is why I NEVER get too excited about the draft It's a graveyard of 1st/2nd round picks. It all depends on the surrounding players, the culture and the coach.
Nate peterman the goat raiders nations
CMC was worth he the 49ers offense carried them to the bowl pat the Best Buy cmc should have won mvo this in Watson being good and Garrett the dopy
People saying Reid was the only coach for Mahomes to turn out this way…yo, Reid doesn't make Mahomes Mahomes. He does teach, and utilize him, but Mahomes takes Reid from the Marty Schottenheimer club into the Bill Walsh league of coaches. It does take a good or even great coach. So that part applies regardless. But coaches without a QB don't win SB's unless you are the Baltimore Ravens with that Ray Lewis Defense, and awesome Oline, a strong tailback, Shannon Sharpe at TE, solid receivers, and one of the all-time best FG kickers where Trent Dilfer could not only game manage…which is the foundation of winning QB play…but he could error on the side of playing safe…which is not winning QB play. That's the only example I can think of. The Steelers had similar teams, but they also had Bradshaw or Big Ben playing, so they were better there. 85 Bears as well…very similar. That D, Sweetness, etc. At least similar, but rare and still, McMahan was pretty decent.
You pretty much gotta have D up to par, the Oline up to par, a QB, and a coach to win. Ranking them, I'd put QB first, then coach. Then recruit, trade, and build around the QB as needed. Mahomes is more important to this success than Andy is. Both are critical.
Bills traded their pick to the Chiefs and we got Mahomes for it, what a steal and we've been beating their ass ever since. 🏆🏆🏆
He's the man and a great person as well. Class act.
Why do the Bears pick terrible QB'S? I was a jim Mc mahon. He just got injured too much beyond him go to Sid Luckman. Never had a QB in Chicago th throw for 4000 yrds in a season
If the bears pick williams ill never watch them again. They cant develop QB's.
Whats with the blue eyes edit?
The browns missed out on Brady, Mahomes, Watson(they got him now), Allen, and Jackson

Beside the chiefs, Mahomes would probably only thrive on the 49ers
The only complaint about garret is what have they won?
Haha recognised that voice …great content sweat
This proved the Drafts ain’t shit
Mahomeles is a bust without Kelse. And for reference I don't like the chiefs or Kelse.
"And this is a pick you can't complain about at all [regarding Myles Garrett]." Except you can. You literally do that yourself. There's an argument to be made about projecting Mahomes' success onto a team that isn't the Chiefs coached by Reid. But you don't do that with the Bears as evidenced by you stating "Oh, what could've been" about drafting Trubisky over Mahomes. Which means you're considering what we know NOW about both QBs with this thought exercise.
So in doing so, you're saying Garrett NOW is more valuable to the Browns than Mahomes NOW? In a re-draft you can't tell me that most people, knowing what we know NOW about both players because, again, that's a parameter you set, wouldn't take Mahomes over Garrett? That you "can't complain about Garrett over Mahomes"? LMAOOOOOOO
EDIT: Also, what's "ironic" about the Browns drafting Kizer? You noted they had a bad QB room so why would them drafting a QB, a need, be "ironic"? Especially, again, because you stated that you "can't complain" about them drafting Garrett as the first pick.
It is irrelevant to a certain extent. He went to the one team that knew what to do. He would have still been good, but not great like he is now.
They NEVER existed it was just him
Garrett and McCaffrey are the only ones that can at all compete with Mahomes, the rest of the picks were not great. Hitting on a QB is obviously going to always be the best bang for your buck, but for their positions, the other 2 are on Mahomes level. McCaffrey was closer to league MVP last year then Mahomes even, that is pretty impressive.
I was so mad that the Cardinals got hosed and Andy Reid stole Mahomes from them in this draft. But I’m a Cardinals fan so it’s all just on brand.
Lets be honest would any of these teams developed Mahomes like Andy did?
People and their ridiculous takes😂! Wherever Mahomes went he was going to be successful because he's a great QB and competitor. You never hear this about Brady, Burrow, etc because it's ridiculous. Would Mahomes be a 3x Superbowl winner in Chicago? No. But he'd be a top 5 QB. I'm Cleveland he probably has at least 1 Superbowl with that defense, but would be a top 3 QB in any case.
You should do the same thing for Brock Purdy
or the 298 players drafted before tom brady, including 7 qbs
Well no wonder Trubisky was a bust Matt Nagy was his OC only mahomes can make Matt Nagy look like a top OC
Lenny isn’t even on the Bills anymore. He was cut during the playoffs or just right before it.
If the Chiefs hadn't drafted him at 10, there's a chance they still could have got him in the 2nd round. Let's not pretend and rewrite history here. No one was talking about Mahomes. He went un-noticed by everyone but the Chiefs. Those who say they were considering him, are full of sheet.
In my mind, swapping him with Trubisky is a losinsg situation as well. The Chiefs had better everything than the Bears. Put him on the Bears and he'll get thrown to the wolves and not perform anywhere near what he does with the Chiefs.
Trubisky given a year to learn,, a better team, culture, coach, weapons… I won't say Super Bowl bound but better than what he's shown most likely.
making the pro bowl and $1 will buy you a coffee at mcdonalds.
John Ross went to the Chiefs at the end before retiring.
Did you really take the time to edit his eye color on a video about virtually nothing? Smh
And now the Browns have Joe Flacco…Oh wait they gave him away too
Amazing, Josh McCown was on the Browns AND the Jets during the Mahomes draft?
North Carolina QBs 🤮🤮🤮
There were 198 players picked before Tom Brady. Just saying.
Jets got two 1s for Jamal, so it wasn't totally a bad pick for them.
WMU ? A nobody university, can we just stop with players whom have never played against top talent ? The Trey Lance lesson
When will the Brock Purdy be created ?
Go bears
So you’re telling me doubs wasn’t a rookie 😐
Actually, John Ross retired a few weeks into training camp with the Kansas City Chiefs, 2023.
Just because Mehomes did good with KC doesn't mean he would've done good anywhere no way
CMC and Mahomes situation is like Jordan and Hakeem. Both picks being really good and reasonable picks but Mahomes just edges out.
