Idk who the best comp here is. Elway? Big Ben?
How many times do I have to say this? No one should ever deign to compare Patrick Mahomes II to that schlub mediocre broncos quarterback.

In terms of scrambling, it's hard to find an exact comparison. I think Patrick's strength is not solely speed or bulk, but more about knowing exactly when and where to run. Maybe the closest equivalent to Patrick is Fran Tarkenton. They aren't built alike at all, but Tarkenton was great at in-pocket movement and he knew when and where to run without taking a hard hit. If not him, then I might go back to Andy's other quarterbacks, Donovan McNabb and Alex Smith. Oddly, I think those two guys are similar to Patrick in running style in ways that most quarterbacks aren't.
