He goes as the QB15—just outside the top 100 picks—in Yahoo drafts right now. If Mahomes ties his career-worst numbers, he's still on track to pay off his current cost. Mahomes can do that too. He averaged over 20 points per game in 2025. Even if the rushing, which made that score possible, goes away, the Chiefs have revamped their offsense in an effort to reignite the passing attack.

Positive signalValue

Mahomes at QB15 offers upside with floor protection; Chiefs offense revamped for passing.

Mahomes goes as QB15 just outside the top 100 picks. His two worst seasons (2023-2024) averaged 17.5 and 17.7 PPG, both QB12 finishes last year, meaning even his floor pays off his current cost. JJ Zachariason frames this as a bet categorically skewed toward upside: Mahomes averaged over 20 PPG in 2025, and the Chiefs have revamped their offense with Eric Bieniemy returning, Kenneth Walker providing ground-game value, and healthier seasons expected from Xavier Worthy and Rashee Rice.
