Credit to John Dorsey for making a real meritocracy in the scouting department, giving props and promotions to people, based on their performance. The creation of Veach's undefined position was one of those: a plumb for the most outstanding person in the scouting department. Veach definitely has a good eye for talent, but he also runs a crew that knows there's recognition and promotion when they do a great job scouting.
@@brandonhale6371I completely agree with you, I've been following the Chiefs as a die-hard fan since 1983, and yeah after the past couple of drafts I have absolutely no doubt in what Brett does. Just because myself or all the NFL experts don't think it's a great pic, Brett has proved them wrong over and over again
I’m sure Brett Veach watched the 2016 Oklahoma vs. Texas Tech football game helping him to decide to draft Patrick Mahomes II. That was the wildest college football game that I’ve ever seen. Although Texas Tech lost to a Baker Mayfield led Sooner team, Mahomes never quit in that game. Mayfield was 27/36 for 545 yards and 7 touchdowns with no interceptions. Mayfield rushed for 19 yards with no touchdowns. Mahomes was 52/88 for 734 yards with 5 touchdowns and 1 interception. Mahomes rushed for 85 yards and scored 2 touchdowns. Probably the winning factor for Oklahoma was Joe Mixon who rushed for 263 yards and 2 touchdowns. Oklahoma punted twice in the game and Texas Tech, also punted twice. Not much defense played in that game! Great episode!
That's the game when I found out about Mahomes. Watch the game for Oklahoma's Mayfield, Mixon, Westbrook. Left that game thinking who ever drafts Mahomes will get the most competitive QB I've ever seen. Entertain the idea of the Chiefs drafting him, but quickly rinsed that thought from my brain. Thinking " Nah this the Chiefs they don't draft QBs, we already got Alex Smith and the Chiefs are playoff team no way he is still available when Chiefs number is called." Never been so happy to be wrong, In Veach we trust.
That was a sick game for sure. The only reason baker mayfield got drafted was that Oklahoma team he was on. And the main reason Patrick was drafted was that Texas tech team he was on😁
Mayfield started college football before Mahomes. Mayfield was in the college system 6 years, Mahomes 3 years. Mayfield played with about 4 or five future all-pro on offense while at OU. TE Andrew's, KC's center, Mixon, others. Even a certain Dallas cowboy wr arrived at OU. The coaches/OCs for both teams played for Mike Leach at Tech, so no defense. 😅
Dorsey drafted Mahomes, Veach was still a scout at the time. Dorsey is also the one who traded up in the draft without the Saints finding out & only paid a 3rd that yr and a 1st the next year to trade up from 27 to 10 with 2 of the top 3 QB still on the board. Normally that would cost multiple 1st rd picks. Dorsey is also the one who drafted Chris Jones, Kelce, & Tyreek Hill. Dorsey drafted 4 1st ballot HOF players in the 5 yrs he was GM. Dorsey did an amazing job for us.
Mahomes is the type of “all stars are aligned” situation. High potential to be the GOAT but needs nurturing. With one of the best coach, QB mentor to learn in the first year, and environment, he achieved his status. If he ends up on another team, he might not have the same greatness that we witness today. Chiefs and himself are lucky to find each other.
Some what true but remember Andy has coached several QB’s I don’t think any of them turn out like Pat. With all that play calling Andy only reached AFC title 1 time at KC and constantly lost playoff games. I put a little more faith on Pat talent and style.
Pats not going anywhere lmao, he literally takes pay cuts to pull in talent to build a dynasty. So the KC franchise not paying him enough is clearly out of the question. And Reid gives him alot of leeway to be himself while teaching him, hence y hes so good. So the idea that mahomes will go elsewhere I see no evidence of that
@@steventaylor6881 yk that “ends up on another team” is the stories around when he’s about to be drafted right? Many teams are inquiring about him near draft day and he could’ve got picked by any team prior to the chiefs trading up to no.10 on the draft.
Veach! (although another part of the story is the kindness and gracefullness of QB Alex Smith. Without Smith's leadership, mentoring and showing Patrick how to act as an NFL quarterback, Mahomes may have turned out similar to many niche, but not stellar leaders).
@@styner3 🤦♀️ clearly you don't get how learning works. You act like that would have rubbed off on Mahomes or something. Alex had been a pro for a decade+ before Mahomes came into the league. He knew more about NFL FOOTBALL than Mahomes and was the veteran on the roster being a similar age to Chad Henne at the time. Chad Henne also taught Mahomes do you think his terrible record and underwhelming career accolades rubbed off on Mahomes too? Lmfao 💀
@@Lucifer_isthereal_god No, I'm saying he didn't need their help. If Mahomes was just a decent player...maybe. Mahomes will probably be considered the GOAT when it's all said and done. I guess Michael Jordan needed someone to teach him too right. You can't teach or coach greatness.
He has revolutionized athletes for real. He could be shredded if he wanted to be. He keeps peak body fat, focuses on functional everything doing all kinds of work outs you never see at your local gym. His flexibility is off the charts which is so important for athletics and he has powerful hips/big ass. It's never been studied that I know of, but strong hips + big butt are essential in sports of all kinds. 😂
not even a chiefs fan but veach knows his stuff he genuinely is one of the reasons that franchise is still killin it with all the young talent they get from the fraft
Man as a Chiefs fan for 20 years(a love/hate relationship with my favorite team) I can not be prouder than I have been since Mahomes became our QB. I just can not believe the luck. Edit: btw all I had to watch as a OU fan was him eviscerate our admittedly absolute dogcrap defense for over 800 total yards of offense with not a single NFL level player around him on offense. This dude could have had a ONE THOUSAND yard game with OUs weapons yet he almost beat a flawless Baker Mayfield performance.
As a Falcon fan, I would like to express my eternal gratitude to Brett Veach and the Kansas City Chiefs staff. I already had to endure 10+ years of Drew Brees with Sean Payton, I don’t think we could take that and follow up with 10+ years of Mahomes with Sean Payton. I would have to quit the NFL at that point, so thank you Kansas City for stopping this potential never-ending nightmare.
Brett, when are you publishing your book? The world wants to know your secrets to success! Personally, I just have great respect to a rare GM that actually made things work and build a kingdom. Thanks for all your great work! Thank you for a great video! I love every second of it!
Andy Reid and Alex Smith were an absolute blessing for him. But let's not be ridiculous. Everybody who saw Patrick in College knew that he was an truly exceptional talent. He's also from a rich family and wasn't overwhelmed by the NFL money. He would've been successful in the NFL no matter where he would've been drafted to. If the Browns, Bears or Panthers would've taken him, he'd be the new Matt Stafford with insane numbers and no wins. If the Saints or Jags would've drafted him, he would've been a SB winning QB eventually. He'd be much less successful than in KC but he would have been a Top 3 no matter what.
He might have been successful but the Chiefs were dragged for taking Mahomes so early over the other “better” QBs. I do agree that it’s not like he wasn’t going to be drafted.
@@cosyfoot7867completely agree. I swear I thought I was the only one who was super excited about Pat because we were getting flamed from the networks and even our own fans for taking him that high. The only thing that bothered me was that we had him sit for a whole year but that was just me being impatient
Bill Belichick, " ummm, I found this 6th Round draft pick called Tom Brady & sold the house to get him to the Patriots. Six Super Bowl wins later, you guys can hold my fucking beer... ".
so glad that mahomes came to the chiefs and established the current dynasty that we are living through. Absolutely cannot wait to make history this next season and be the first team to ever win three super bowls in a row!
I’m a Colts fan who thinks Peyton Manning was the GOAT,….. but Patrick Mahomes. Man, he is making me change my mind . He is as smart as Manning with the arm of Favre and Rodgers
I was at work that draft day, helped a customer and came back and everyone was ripping me cause we moved up for this kid. I didn’t know who he was and I was kinda salty cause Watson just won a national championship. I turned on his tape at work that day I was absolutely amazed. Obviously the rest was history lol
I'm so grateful that Veach was so obsessed with Mahomes, he made sure Andy was going to get that guy no matter what. Veach is the Sam Presti of the NFL but with rings and better sense of how to build a team outside of the draft.
Swifty here. Just started to get into football since Travis started dating Taylor. My girlfriends and I are loving your insight. VERY informative !!! We love learning about the game. Thank you
I'm by no means a stat rat. I don't watch games all weekend. I take no more than a casual, passing interest in the draft. I don't break down film. I would make a terrible fantasy football team owner. Before Mahomes's second season in the NFL, I couldn't recall if I had ever heard of him. But, I am a fairly astute observer of sports in general. And because I don't live in an NFL market, I've never really had any lasting loyalty to any particular team. To my mind, that makes me objective. I'm also distrustful of recency bias by nature. With all that said, through six seasons as a starter, I can say with unwavering confidence that I've never seen anyone play the quarterback position better than Patrick Mahomes. That doesn't make him the GOAT. That requires some measure of longevity... Maybe not Brady longevity, but at least a 15 year career. If the man maintains his current statistical output, and wins three more rings over the next 7 years, that will be enough, in my book. If he wins four consecutive, then walks away, that will be enough. If he matches Brady's ring tally in the next ten seasons, that will be enough. Basically, Bro has got multiple realistic avenues to GOAT status after only six seasons as a starter and two seasons before his 30th birthday. That is ridiculous.
What a fantastic video! All Chiefs fans know the Cliffs Notes version of how we got Mahomes, but this is the first "documentary" I've seen on how Veach became Veach. Kudos!
I always heard Terry Fontenot (2016 Saints Scouting director, currently Atlanta Falcons GM) was the first to show interest in Mahomes. He showed film to Sean Payton who was so impressed that he went in person to watch Mahomes at Texas Tech. After that interest, It got out to other NFL scouts that the saints were very interested in the Texas Tech QB. (Supposedly Terry Fontenot had the same interest in Michael Penix. Hence why the Falcons were so aggressive to draft him this draft
Solid video man! Just 2 tidbits, Patrick Mahomes is from Whitehouse and Lago del Pino is a restaurant/lounge in Tyler, TX not Philadelphia. I only know cuz I'm a Whitehouse native myself cheers!
Oof, the fact that the Bill's were the organization that traded us the pick is like twisting the knife after beating them in the playoffs in such devastating fashion.
Crazy part about most of the issues they had against mahomes come from baseball lol... The weird angles on throws, throwing off balance, the footwork, all baseball which basically aid to his football.. same thing with Russell Wilson in his prime... These were baseball guys who could play football. .. good stuff for this vid.. love stuff like this
I've been watching football since June 24th, 1922, when the league officials renamed the American Professional Football Association (APFA) to the National Football League (NFL), and I can say without a shadow of a doubt that Mahomes is the best ever!!!
Typically when a guy has unorthdox mechanics he often isnt consistant but Pat is the mold breaker. I remeber first time saw him in the NfL i knew he was special.
Just read that Patrick's heart rate was monitored during this last Super Bowl. On the field his heart rate remained remarkably low and steady. Off the field watching the defense it was noticeably higher...Kid is a BEAST!
I was in brett Veatchs new house installing cabinets when it was getting built. And behind a cab in his kitchen we wrote in big letters "in Veatch we trust"
QB recruitment is a hit or miss. He was so unpredictable in college. KC took a big swing on him. They had a veteran QB on staff, great offensive coach, good GM. Mahomes was able to sit for a year. Landing on a stable team definitely helps!
I live close to Kansas City. I remember Patrick Mahomes first year as a starter when he won the MVP award. Everyone in KC was calling him the next Joe Montana, Tom Brady, etc. I said "It's been one year, wait until he wins a couple of Super Bowls. Plus, now that teams have tape on him, he'll fall off." I'm man enough to say I was wrong. Will he catch Tom Brady, out of everyone out there right now he has the best chance
The Chiefs are SO indebted to Brett Veach and Andy Reid who let him loose to go find the best college talent available, and then listened to him after he found Mahomes. I'm a life long KC Chiefs fan since I was in grade school in the mid-60's and I've never seen anything remotely like what Mahomes has brought to the franchise in their entire history as a franchise. And I've seen the some good, mostly bad and often ugly that was the Chiefs story. AND, what's even more amazing is that they have built a strong offensive line and defense that is needed to win championships. SO, they aren't just good today, they're going to be competitive for potentially decades to come. GO VEACH, GO CHIEFS!!
THANK YOU!!!!!! Been praisin' VEECH for hia football godliness since before Dorc left... Now do the Tyreek got us a stella D! Video.... #KingdomeKCome #KCPart3
5:09 Andy Reid always had final say. Still does. The Chiefs are Andy's org-we all just pretend the general manager has personnel control. It's why Dorsey got moved on from, was starting to challenge Andy's rule. Dorsey and Veach were both awesome GMs though.
Many analysts wonder what makes Patrick Mahomes so special and different. And it's the same thing that made a lot of teams skeptical of Mahomes. And both point to his footwork and the way he throws. The guy grew up in dugouts. From the time he was a teeny kid he had a glove in one hand and a ball cap on his head. He personally knew the likes of Jeeter and A. Rodriguez, etc. as his dad went around playing for different clubs as a pro pitcher. The ball diamond and dugout was one of his playgrounds. And he played ball all his life, among other sports like basketball. In his sophomore year in college the Detroit Tigers came calling. That was at the time Mahomes was deciding to make football his main sport and be a quarterback. Along with that rocket launcher arm and intellect the guy a lot of times throws like a baseballer. I say Mahomes is really a baseball player as quarterback. All that baseball is part of what makes him so effective and fun to watch with his awesome throws.
Well every player is great in highschool and college its a gamble if they can carry that into the nfl and mahomes has flat out defied what has been impossible for ANY PLAYER in the last 100+ years he throws from one side of the hashmarks to the other and off the back foot nkt looking and having insane accuracy plus pressure on him
Things like this are what make me believe the nfl isn’t that “scripted.” Mahomes put in work, and it took a sort of miracle for Veach to have even noticed him. Mahomes deserved everything he gained due to HARD work, and his success in the NFL should not be a surprise. When you have a lot of skill, of course you will win. Being an amazing quarterback in college was not at all scripted. His whole life wasn’t scripted for him. He worked to get to where he is now, and his hard work and his being noticed and his rise to the top wasn’t a real life example of the Truman Show.
Nobody found PM. He was a starter as a freshmen at TT. Beat out a future Heismen winner, Baker Mayfield. He had four great years at Tech. It was obvious. I'm sure there are tons of guys who with a little coaching can start in the NFL, but there are too many stupid people picking, that are deceived by hype from media.
Brett Veach is a genius. He brought the savior of the kansas city chiefs. Thank God for patrick.

What a fantastic video! All Chiefs fans know the Cliffs Notes version of how we got Mahomes, but this is the first "documentary" I've seen on how Veach became Veach. Kudos!
I always heard Terry Fontenot (2016 Saints Scouting director, currently Atlanta Falcons GM) was the first to show interest in Mahomes. He showed film to Sean Payton who was so impressed that he went in person to watch Mahomes at Texas Tech.
After that interest, It got out to other NFL scouts that the saints were very interested in the Texas Tech QB.
(Supposedly Terry Fontenot had the same interest in Michael Penix. Hence why the Falcons were so aggressive to draft him this draft
Solid video man! Just 2 tidbits, Patrick Mahomes is from Whitehouse and Lago del Pino is a restaurant/lounge in Tyler, TX not Philadelphia. I only know cuz I'm a Whitehouse native myself cheers!
Oof, the fact that the Bill's were the organization that traded us the pick is like twisting the knife after beating them in the playoffs in such devastating fashion.
I love your videos tho I all ways love learning facts from your videos great video keep up the good work❤❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Crazy part about most of the issues they had against mahomes come from baseball lol... The weird angles on throws, throwing off balance, the footwork, all baseball which basically aid to his football.. same thing with Russell Wilson in his prime... These were baseball guys who could play football. .. good stuff for this vid.. love stuff like this
Kyle Shannahan blew it more than anyone with Mahomes. Can you imagine Mahomes on that 9er's team? They'd already have 4-5 Super Bowls.
I've been watching football since June 24th, 1922, when the league officials renamed the American Professional Football Association (APFA) to the National Football League (NFL), and I can say without a shadow of a doubt that Mahomes is the best ever!!!
Everyone missed Brady. Veach didn't miss Mahomes. God bless Brett Veach.
They owe that Veach guy everything.
Typically when a guy has unorthdox mechanics he often isnt consistant but Pat is the mold breaker. I remeber first time saw him in the NfL i knew he was special.
This is just excellent content on your end. Thank you.
Such an amazing video you deserve more recognition
Goes to show doesn’t matter how good you are all it takes is luck and a whole lotta faith from one person that has connections
I love the way you put this story together.
Just read that Patrick's heart rate was monitored during this last Super Bowl. On the field his heart rate remained remarkably low and steady. Off the field watching the defense it was noticeably higher...Kid is a BEAST!
Every single KC fan owns Veach a beer. If he was to meet us all, he'll have a beer supply for the rest of his life :)
Best pick in NFL history
I was in brett Veatchs new house installing cabinets when it was getting built. And behind a cab in his kitchen we wrote in big letters "in Veatch we trust"
Great video, so glad to see Veach getting his flowers!
As a 28yr STH at Arrowhead, props that was a damn good video.
Wow! So many moving parts to make it a reality for Mahomes to be at Kansas City
QB recruitment is a hit or miss. He was so unpredictable in college. KC took a big swing on him. They had a veteran QB on staff, great offensive coach, good GM. Mahomes was able to sit for a year. Landing on a stable team definitely helps!
Awesome video, you can tell the amount of effort went into it. Subscribed.
🫡 Thank u!
That one pick made Veach a Hall Of Famer
I live close to Kansas City. I remember Patrick Mahomes first year as a starter when he won the MVP award. Everyone in KC was calling him the next Joe Montana, Tom Brady, etc. I said "It's been one year, wait until he wins a couple of Super Bowls. Plus, now that teams have tape on him, he'll fall off." I'm man enough to say I was wrong. Will he catch Tom Brady, out of everyone out there right now he has the best chance
Dope video thanks for the content
🫡 Thank u!
Excellent presentation!
🫡 Thank u!
Great Job VEACH❤❤❤❤❤❤ Keep up the good work man!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
More chiefs stories >>>
DOPE VID first time watching so this is jxmmyHighroller but for football 😂
Nice work bro 💪🏻
Captain Red Beard sent me! LFG! #HBTC
The Chiefs are SO indebted to Brett Veach and Andy Reid who let him loose to go find the best college talent available, and then listened to him after he found Mahomes. I'm a life long KC Chiefs fan since I was in grade school in the mid-60's and I've never seen anything remotely like what Mahomes has brought to the franchise in their entire history as a franchise. And I've seen the some good, mostly bad and often ugly that was the Chiefs story. AND, what's even more amazing is that they have built a strong offensive line and defense that is needed to win championships. SO, they aren't just good today, they're going to be competitive for potentially decades to come. GO VEACH, GO CHIEFS!!
Thanks for mentioning intuition. I do think that is the best word for that kind of insight.
Matt nagy deserves much credit too, the night before pat visited the chiefs nagy sent pat the playbook for him to study.
THANK YOU!!!!!! Been praisin' VEECH for hia football godliness since before Dorc left... Now do the Tyreek got us a stella D! Video.... #KingdomeKCome #KCPart3
Ima a chiefs fan and didnt know all that. Crazy story. Ty for it
Mahomes proves that the game is no longer majorly physical it's shifting to the strongest muscle on the body "the brain"
5:09 Andy Reid always had final say. Still does. The Chiefs are Andy's org-we all just pretend the general manager has personnel control. It's why Dorsey got moved on from, was starting to challenge Andy's rule.
Dorsey and Veach were both awesome GMs though.
It is insane that bro is literally probably the best QB to ever play and he’s not finished.
"Pat no matter what" goes so hard
Many analysts wonder what makes Patrick Mahomes so special and different. And it's the same thing that made a lot of teams skeptical of Mahomes.
And both point to his footwork and the way he throws.
The guy grew up in dugouts. From the time he was a teeny kid he had a glove in one hand and a ball cap on his head. He personally knew the likes of Jeeter and A. Rodriguez, etc. as his dad went around playing for different clubs as a pro pitcher.
The ball diamond and dugout was one of his playgrounds.
And he played ball all his life, among other sports like basketball.
In his sophomore year in college the Detroit Tigers came calling. That was at the time Mahomes was deciding to make football his main sport and be a quarterback.
Along with that rocket launcher arm and intellect the guy a lot of times throws like a baseballer.
I say Mahomes is really a baseball player as quarterback.
All that baseball is part of what makes him so effective and fun to watch with his awesome throws.
Well every player is great in highschool and college its a gamble if they can carry that into the nfl and mahomes has flat out defied what has been impossible for ANY PLAYER in the last 100+ years he throws from one side of the hashmarks to the other and off the back foot nkt looking and having insane accuracy plus pressure on him
Love at first sight for me a Peyton/ Luck fan who needed a new QB to follow
Well put together! 👍 Thank you so much.
Patrick Mahomes had a huge ceiling. Really peaked in the NFL.
Buffalo definitely regrets that trade for sure now that they've had time to see how it all panned out.
He'll be a hall of famer, guaranteed.
Things like this are what make me believe the nfl isn’t that “scripted.” Mahomes put in work, and it took a sort of miracle for Veach to have even noticed him. Mahomes deserved everything he gained due to HARD work, and his success in the NFL should not be a surprise. When you have a lot of skill, of course you will win. Being an amazing quarterback in college was not at all scripted. His whole life wasn’t scripted for him. He worked to get to where he is now, and his hard work and his being noticed and his rise to the top wasn’t a real life example of the Truman Show.
Can you imagine being one of the people that put Mitch Trubisky ahead of Mahomes? I’d be so ashamed of myself lmao
Great breakdown, thanks.....so "In Veach we trust!"
GREAT PIECE!
PHENOMENAL JOB!!
GO CHIEFS GO!!!
Nobody found PM. He was a starter as a freshmen at TT. Beat out a future Heismen winner, Baker Mayfield. He had four great years at Tech. It was obvious. I'm sure there are tons of guys who with a little coaching can start in the NFL, but there are too many stupid people picking, that are deceived by hype from media.
