18. Donovan Smith (OT), Chiefs: Needing to trade both endorsements this season, the Chiefs spent big on the right tackle Joanne Taylor and opted for a one-year deal with Smith to protect Patrick Mahomes’ blind side. Smith missed a career-high four games last year and posted the worst “winning percentage” since the stat began in 2017, but he’s been generally solid throughout his career.
3 – Patrick Mahomes
No. 1 in: 2021
How’s that for efficiency? In five seasons as the starting quarterback, Mahomes has hit five Asian Championship Games and three powers, win by two. In the Super Bowl era, he ranked first among eligible quarterbacks in winning percentage (. 800), passing yards per game (303.0), passing touchdowns per game (2.4) and passer rating (105.7). He is a two-time regular season MVP And Two-time Super Bowl MVP. And on a weekly basis, nobody delivers more amazing He plays from No. 15. Mahomes is pure magic, a must-watch every time he plays.
Did I mention he’s still only 27 years old?
Mahomes could end up at the top of this list. This is not an exaggeration. Mahomes could finish at the top of the everyone lists.

3. Travis Kelsey, Kansas Chiefs
Most players can give a fake header or shoulder roll to make a fake action. Travis Kelce can flip his entire body. Nobody is more cheeky than the hips up, particularly in the shoulders, which Kelsey rolls deftly to affect defenders in a variety of ways. He’s so lethal here that he can make himself look like a defender of one area’s charge, when, in fact, his way is attacking another area’s defender.
Simply put: Kelce can cover a file a lot From the earth in the deceiving parts of his ways he makes himself look Like it’s about to cover up more. The only other extreme who has this trait is Mark Andrews, which is to a much lesser extent. Andrews is great at cutting his cuts to distort the responsibilities of area defenders when executing tackles over 15 yards (primarily the passers). Kelce can do this on any route over two yards long.

2. The Kansas City Chiefs
Overall score: 93.4
Reason for hope: Patrick Mahomes can be a simple, all-encompassing two-word reason for optimism. He’s signed through 2031, and as long as he’s in Kansas City, the Chiefs should be fighting for titles. But the fact that several rookies played key roles in last season’s Super Bowl run shows there’s even more reason to be bullish about the Chiefs’ future. The coaching staff and front office have proven they can build around a generational quarterback to keep competing at a high level. – Graziano
Cause for concern: Travis Kelsey will turn 34 in October. Since 2018, he ranks second in the league in receptions (507), third in receiving yards (6,444) and fourth in receiving TDs (47). While Mahomes is one of the better QBs we’ve seen, life after Kelce would have started to keep me up at night if I were GM Brett Veach. The Chiefs don’t have any offensive skill players on the roster who are prepared to handle this kind of responsibility. – Riddick
Stats to know: The Chiefs’ biggest advantage is Mahomes, and they tend to it. On early downs when the game was in question (win probability between 15% and 85%) last season, the Chiefs ran a pass designed 67% of the time – most in the league. That’s exactly where they are He should Rank, given who throws those passes to them. – Walder

Seahawks unveil ’90s-inspired throwback uniforms | NFL.com
This will be the first time Seattle has worn the blue and silver strings since 2001, when the franchise was still in the AFC.
The initial spectacle of the Seahawks’ rebounding jerseys evokes the image of Steve Largent’s No. 80 jersey hanging from the sidelines with the white numbers appearing on the eye-catching blue jerseys, and the reflected glow of the silver helmets brings back memories of the lights of old Kingdome Stadium.
Denzel Mims to be waived if Jets can’t trade WR, source confirms | ESPN
Wide receiver Denzel Mims, a second-round draft pick in 2020 who hasn’t picked up steam with the Jets’ current coaching staff, has been told he’s being waived, a source confirmed Wednesday to ESPN.
The Jets are trying to trade Mims, who requested the trade one year ago but will be placed on waivers if New York cannot reach an agreement with another team. The Jets’ plan to waive Mims was first reported by the New York Post.
Mims was excused from training camp and did not show up with the rest of the squad. The move was not surprising, as Mims failed to establish a consistent role and had only 42 catches for 676 yards while failing to score a touchdown in three seasons.

Andy Reid of the Chiefs has trusted Patrick Mahomes to do the “quarterback” job right
Even with all the faith the team and Reid have in Mahomes, Ted Crews — the team’s executive vice president of communications — had the final say on why he appeared on the show.
“Ted was probably the biggest part of having to go through every inch of it,” Reid revealed on Tuesday. “Listen, there are things you don’t want in there–I mean the best you can… There are some things you’d like to keep in the house– [like] The particular way we teach things — and that’s what we’ve tried to do with that, to a degree. [But] You know, we shared some things too.”
Reed hasn’t said if he likes the show – or even admits to having watched it – but still gives it a positive rating based on a reliable source.
He said, “You know my wife watched it, so it looks like a pretty good show — and I’m happy. It’s good for the NFL. It’s great when people know what quarterbacks are going through.”
Mahomes said he was proud of the final product.
“They did it the right way,” he told reporters. “I mean, [you] He saw the raw passion of playing football. I saw what it was like to be a quarterback – but also to be a husband and a father and how to balance that time. I’ve seen it from three different angles. I thought it was a great way to do that.”
