    Fan of Veach since learning how he scouted Mahomes & sent info to Andy Reid. It’s great to see the success.

      Don't forget he slipped Mahomes the test plays too ahead of the meeting with Andy. 😂

    Veach doesn't get enough credit. Especially considering how much value he's found picking at the end of each round (given the Chief's success) and finding a ton of stars in the mid to late rounds. He's not perfect, but he's been a stellar GM and has consistently gotten better.

    I've come to realize that once a team wins the championship it's important to be strongly motivated to do it again. It takes total dedication and most don't want to work that hard.

    He's also big Motivator, Mahomes talks about when he hurt ankle the 1st time and when he was in locker room, &
    Veach told him, "Just think of the story you'll have when we win the Superbowl this yr. & they did !!
