Yeah, I can see that happening.

They should. A LT is less valuable to Mahomes than almost any other QB in the league. Especially a non-athletic one like OBJ. Mahomes is a guy who likes to drift out of the pocket and can avoid the rush very well. It's honestly pretty hard on a LT.

I get the idea is to "protect" him. If you really wanted to protect Mahomes you would throw half as much and run a heavy run based system. Im certainly not advocating that but that is how you would do it.

Using the resources we are better off paying an Edge rusher or Chris Jones, then a WR#1 and then LT. You should be able to get a reasonable pass protecting first LT in first couple rounds that the rest of the league doesn't value as much as a passing team like the Chiefs.
