Patrick Mahomes’ Draft Grade Goes Viral After NFL Draft 2024
Patrick Mahomes, who is considered as one of the greatest quarterbacks in the league has his Draft grades going viral following the conclusion of the 2024 NFL Draft. Nevertheless, it wasn't the same before during his college days as the scouts weren't aware of his abilities.
Back then, even before he entered the league, the NFL journalist Steven Ruiz didn't view the Kansas City Chiefs star QB as great as he is now and gave him a C- grade during the selection. The writer not only stated that Mahomes wasn't good enough to be an NFL player, he also said that the 28-year-old would never be good enough to play in the league. While stating that Mahomes was a “risky pick,” he said, “He's nowhere near ready to play in the NFL. And, honestly, he may never be.”
That “risky pick” has now led the Kansas City Chiefs to four Super Bowl games winning three of them as a starter. He is also a three-time Super Bowl MVP in addition to bagging several other records and achievements to his name. Mahomes has also powered his side, which selected him 10th overall in the 2017 NFL draft; towards six back-to-back AFC Championship Games.

A fan responded, “They said he might never be ready to play in the NFL.”
Another wrote, “I think a lot of us football fans tend to over, analyze the draft and critique the players before they even touch the NFL field”
One wrote, “That's why I take no stock in what Experts or Fans say about the Draft
The Draft builds championship teams, but we don't know until someone is out there what they got.”
Another said, “Tell you why Buffalo hasn’t won anything since, Wait, Never….”
Recently, the Buffalo Bills were slammed for letting go of another potential star quarterback Xavier Worthy to the Chiefs which was a reminiscence of the AFC East division team giving up on Mahomes at the draft six years earlier.
