Mahomes is one of 10 people who Pro Football Focus projects as being "poised to make a run" at being in the top 101 players:
There’s some projection here as Patrick Mahomes has only one game under his belt in the NFL, but he showed off his playmaking ability in his Week 17 start. He ranked second in the FBS in big-time throws in 2016 and the special plays were already on display, both during the preseason and in his one regular season start. The question will be if he can avoid the poor decisions, as he also ranked second in turnover-worthy plays in 2016. But with Kansas City’s playmakers and a solid scheme that helped elevate QB Alex Smith to his best statistical season in 2017, Mahomes has the right environment that should pair with his natural playmaking to create a star.
