“Brett, obviously with retrospect now, did a tremendous job on scouting Patrick and then getting first, Andy, and then later, John Dorsey, excited about him,” Hunt told reporters in October. “It truly was an organizational decision to draft him, so I don’t want to minimize that, but Brett deserves a lot of the credit.”
Based on their intel, Cabott said they expected Mahomes would be taken shortly after the ninth pick. He described the lineup of the Bills, Saints, Browns and Cardinals at the 10th through 13th picks as the “hot corner” for Mahomes.
Man, I wonder how Dorsey knew the exact draft position to trade up for Mahomes. A reasonable person would credit the relationship between Veach and Cabbott and the subsequent Intel on who else was interested, but Veach doesn't deserve any of the credit so we must look elsewhere, I suppose.
