From the article

Mahomes has never ranked this low headed into a fantasy season, but he's earned it by finishing the last few years in this realm. With the injury in mind, and the nature of the quarterback position in a fantasy draft, Mahomes may fall past the ninth round, where he sits as the 103rd-ranked player by consensus ADP.

STACKED’s take

Mahomes' lowest preseason ranking ever due to ACL injury; may fall to round 9+.

Mahomes has never ranked this low headed into a fantasy season; he's earned it by finishing the last few years in this realm. With the torn ACL (and LCL) injury in mind, and the nature of the quarterback position in a fantasy draft, Mahomes may fall past the ninth round, where he sits as the 103rd-ranked player by consensus ADP. ESPN ranks him 13th among QBs, Yahoo! 15th, and Sleeper ADP 12th.
