I like Mahomes alot better than Mitch ****ing Tribisky as far skills.

Any of them can be a bust and that certainly includes Mahomes, but...
I think there is a bigger bust potential with Trubisky. They spent so much to move up one spot and the #2 pick for him seems outright ridiculous in the first place. He only has 13 starts and Gruden busted him on national TV with the issue of hard counts. The Bears apparently only spent about 15 minutes interviewing him at the Combine. Chiefs spent 6+ hours interviewing each QB including Mahomes, Trubisky, Watson, Kizer, etc. And which evaluation do you trust on a quarterback? I'm going with Andy Reid/John Dorsey's thorough evaluation over the apparent half-ass due diligence by John Fox/Ryan Pace.
And heck, I'm not sure Watson is as prepared for the NFL as some people think. Clemson's offense required very few reads on his part and his velocity numbers give him very little margin for error at the NFL level. He was already throwing too many INT's in college. What happens to his INT numbers in the NFL against much faster defenses given his velocity issue? He's not exactly a super accurate passer to begin with.
