I’m still not convinced Allen was the Bills top QB choice in that draft (although I know they said he was). I certainly would take him over any of the others at this point though! He was, here's their draft board:

To be fair, it DOES follow Zero’s only known framework for posting here: “THE CHIEFS GOT PATRICK MAHOMES!!!!!!!”. Why do I keep clicking on threads by this strange troll? 7 hours ago, Back the Blue said: Make no mistake about it, this guy is trolling. He tries to be very subtle about it, but what other explanation is there for a KC fan to show up here after Mahomes explodes on the scene(after Buffalo traded the pick to KC). Fans of other teams who come here to discuss football aren't necessarily trolls. Trolls come to a another team's fan site to stir up trouble. Zerovoltz hasn't ever done that. I think that the 2017 trade between the Bills and Chiefs, the subsequent stardom of Mahomes, and the emergence of Allen and the Bills as an AFC power link the two teams together to form a potential rivalry.

I agree with Back the Blue. Zero has literally ADMITTED that he came to TBD to stir up crap and to essentially troll the Bills for not drafting Mahomes. He says he then really liked the forum and decided to stick around. The only problem is that he only ever posts about Mahomes and the Chiefs, never about the Bills. I just don't see the point of his once monthly "hey guys, did you hear the Chiefs drafted Pat Mahomes" threads, other than to stick it to Bills fans, over and over and over again. 1
without a drought Posted December 2, 2020 Posted December 2, 2020 So we're dragging out a story from 2016 that was started by Paxton's agent, Leigh Steinberg. An agent saying that the Chiefs and Cowboys were among the teams looking to move up and draft him is not the same as something that actually happened.

Yeah, same here. I DEFINITELY didn't want Darnold. But I also didn't want Allen. I wanted the other Josh. I guess that's why I don't run an NFL franchise.
Maybe Someday Posted December 3, 2020 Posted December 3, 2020 On 12/2/2020 at 3:02 AM, Zerovoltz said: On April 18th, 2016, The destiny of the Kansas City Chiefs was set in motion by an on obscure, odd, bitter event that no one even remembers. Kansas City lost it’s appeal on charges of illegal tampering with Jeremy Maclin prior to his signing with the team. At the time, everyone was upset with the NFL for handing down such a harsh sentence. The Chiefs were fined 250k, and had to forfeit their 3rd and 6th round draft choices in the 2016 NFL draft. Just days before the draft started, losing that 3rd round pick would end up saving the Chiefs from themselves, and the rest is history. Let me explain. In 2016, Kansas City allegedly wanted to draft Paxton Lynch, the big tall QB from Memphis. KC, picking 28th, knew Lynch was coveted by other teams. In fact, Jerry Jones lamented after that draft, that he wished had “overpayed” to move up and draft Lynch. There were rumblings all over that KC was in on him as well. Denver, picking at 31, and needing a new QB after the retirement of Peyton Manning, ended up making the deal to move up to 26 and get Lynch. It might seem like picking at 28 and only needing to move up 2 spots, KC would be able to make a winning offer to Seattle to make it happen…but they didn’t have a 3rd round pick. Kansas City’s 3rd rounder, the 91st overall selection, was the pick KC had to give up for tampering with Maclin. Denver had the 94th overall pick, late in the third round and was able to package pick 31 and pick 94 to make the move up to 26. If KC had their 3rd rounder, Kansas City would have been able to outbid Denver with an offer of 28 and 91. As it was, the best the Chiefs could do was 28 and 126, their 4th round choice. Denver had the best offer, moved up and drafted Lynch. Kansas City would go on to trade back out of the 28th pick with San Francisco. The Chiefs sent the 28th (1st) and the 249th (7th) for 37 (2nd) 105 (4th) and 178 (6th). At 37, Kansas City would select, DT Chris Jones. At 105 they selected G Parker Ehinger, who started until he suffered an injury and then was traded to Dallas in 2017 for Charvarious Ward. Having missed out on Lynch in 2016, the Chiefs were still looking for a QB in 2017. We all know how that turned out. Who would have thought, such a trivial, heavy handed decision over tampering with a player, would ultimately lead to Kansas City acquiring Chris Jones, Charvarious Ward, and…Patrick Mahomes. Sometimes it’s the little, obscure events that we miss, that matter more than we think and more than we could ever know at the time. Reminds me of that that time we passed up on Aaron Rodgers because we had just traded up the year prior for JP Loseman. Chiefs dodged a bullet. We got it right in the a$$. 1

Great. 90% of your content here is new threads with another spin on how Buffalo didn't draft Mahomes or run of the mill LAMP. If you had any interest in participating on this board like any other functioning adult you would do so. Its not hard. But here we are with another LAMP about how Buffalo didn't draft Mahomes. 2

Nextmanup Posted December 3, 2020 Posted December 3, 2020 You have to love an NFL team taking a defensive tackle way before a QB with Mahomes' talent. And of course, it wasn't just the Chiefs who passed on him! That's not hindsight 20/20 crap, that's how these NFL teams operate, and they are all equally bad. If Mahomes had flamed out, get the next Mahomes, and the next, and grab a couple every draft class until you have one that works. Defensive tackles? Who cares. 1
