Yahoo Fantasy Football on Patrick Mahomes

Reduced rushing, weak downfield options, brutal early schedule make Mahomes a fade.

Mahomes will be a fade in almost any format. He's said he wants to run less proactively this year coming off knee problems, which will reduce his rushing production. The Chiefs have a hellish first two months: Broncos twice, Chargers, and Seahawks, plus a Week 8 bye. Combined with a middling set of downfield options, the source is skipping Mahomes, emphasizing that fantasy football is about the numbers, not the names.
