He missed out on PM because PM didn't want to come to New Orleans. I remember in an interview, he told the Chiefs that if they don't move up, Saints would draft him.
“As the process went on, I got a feeling I was going up in the draft,” Mahomes said. “I had a couple of teams that have been out there now that said they were going to draft me and that’s true. It’s not like these coaches were making that up. I talked to them during the draft process and they were like ‘Hey, if you’re there we’re going to take you.’ And so, I kind of gave a little inside info to the Chiefs. ‘Hey if you all let me go anywhere, I didn’t know about the Saints spot, below 12 or below I’m going to get drafted by someone else.’ “So I gave the Chiefs a little bit of info on that because I wanted to be here.”
