However, in 2017, when he was still waiting for the answer to his fate, his performance in the NFL Combine was anything but impressive; In fact, it was horrendous.
On his two 40-yard running attempts in the NFL Combine, Mahomes ran a terrible 4.80. This number was not good for your stock, even if you are not a broker by purpose.

He became known during the NFL draft period. This was due to the fact that, even though he was a very different player, he still possessed several strengths upon which the ideal coaching staff could grow.
The perfect coaching staff was waiting to make him a near-perfect player for the Kansas City Chiefs. It would have been unfortunate to see his skills wasted on a different team that would have tried to turn him into a more conventional player.
