Stafford would've been a fair comp.
He's a high character guy who just looks like a frumpy frat boy so he doesn't get much credit for it. But I'd have had no qualms w/ Stafford comparisons for Mahomes coming out of college.
And Stafford went 1.1.
Watching that draft a month or so ago just left me scratching my head. Over and over again "the 49ers could use a quarterback..." or "The Jags really need to consider what to do about the Blake Bortles conundrum...."
I mean the talking heads knew what these teams should've been doing. The teams just didn't seem to understand it.
