The Chiefs' upcoming schedule might be more impactful for Mahomes than Downs, although the deal is a positive... maybe a 1-PPG bump compared to having a different wideout in the game.

STACKED’s take

NeutralProjection

Downs trade adds modest ~1 PPG to Mahomes; passing production remains modest.

The Downs trade is a positive for Mahomes, but the impact is modest. Mahomes' passing production over the past few years has been modest in fantasy, often relying on rushing for his ceiling, and the trade may only provide approximately a 1-PPG bump compared to having a different wideout in the game.
