Season Outlook

The Chiefs offense is filled with fantasy potential and hungry for yet another division title. With reports that 2017 top-10 draft pick Patrick Mahomes will be given every opportunity to thieve the starting job away Alex Smith, Smith's value is uncertain. However, given the fact that Smith's sparkling 67.1 completion percentage and 3,502 yards were a big reason the Chiefs made the playoffs last season. He manages games masterfully, but with a lack of arm strength, he remained a mediocre QB1 with the seemingly unstoppable Travis Kelce the main focus in the offense. Kelce led all fantasy TE in fantasy points with a dazzling 233 points and his 1,125 receiving yards was 12th best in the league. Tyreek Hill led Chiefs wide receivers in total fantasy points with 217 and is expected to be atop of the Chiefs depth chart at WR. The Chiefs wide receivers are all under the age of 30 and look poised for a collective breakout season. The Chiefs wide receivers are a unit that could thrive in Andy Reid's possession coaching scheme and with Alex Smith's time in Kansas City ticking, the offense could become a terrific source of fantasy points. Running back Spencer Ware finished the season with 951 rushing yards on 214 attempts. Their run option game plan worked last year for rookie offensive coordinator Matt Nagy and with Ware entering the season as the team's feature back, he most definitely has appeal as a RB2 or FLEX option. Nagy will look to involve Tyreek Hill more in the pass game, which could become deadly given his out-of-this-world speed and athleticism has already terrorized opposing team's special team's units. Hill's value lies within is as a FLEX or sleeper option. The bottom line is the Chiefs will go only as far as Smith or Mahomes can take them. If Smith starts off the season slow, don't be surprised to see Mahomes become a hot waiver wire commodity.

Player Outlooks & Draft Analysis

Quarterbacks
Patrick Mahomes A perennial playoff team, the Chiefs opted for Mahomes going forward even after Alex Smith posted a career year. It's a pretty difficult narrative to ignore when assessing Mahomes' chances for success. Andy Reid has coaxed some monster seasons out of dual threat quarterbacks like Michael Vick and Donovan McNabb in the past, and while Mahomes is a bit of a dice roll, his situation and supporting cast give him a massive ceiling.
