However, at his pro day, he reportedly wowed scouts with a series of throws, including an 80-yard Hail Mary that served as the grand finale.

Wes Welker, now a receivers coach with the San Francisco 49ers, was in attendance for Mahomes' pro day, at the time working with the Houston Texans. He told Sports Illustrated's Michael Rosenberg that when Mahomes' workout ended, scouts applauded. Welker, who was new to coaching, had to ask if that was normal. A scout told him it was not.

There are similarities ... hype train!

But every now and then doesnt a diamond appear in the rough?

I bet Willis is there at 11, I take a swing. I bet next year with Wentz under center our pick will be high teens or twenties. Willis could be the land the Wentz bridge brings us too.
