Considering all the backdoor monitoring of Mahomes, Veach's constant contact for 2+ years with Mahomes' people, and the complete infatuation he had with Mahomes, i doubt Watson was ever really on their radar aside from your expected due-diligence. Veach was in on Mahomes since he became the starting QB at Tech.

Of course none of us KNOW, but based on what we've heard, it was Mahomes or bust.

And like i said in my previous posts, im not sure that Watson wow'd Reid on the board. Mahomes' intelligence is one of the best parts of his game.

If Watson processed as quickly as Mahomes did he wouldn't hold the ball so damn long and take so many sacks.
