Mahomes is the NFL's version of Mike Trout. "5 Tool" kind of guy who can do it all plus is likeable and humble. If he's throwing 40+ td's a year his first several years his cards are going to have a similar ascension.

Or he could be this generation's Michael Vick, or Kaepernick or even Marino (who never won a Super Bowl). |

Agree with this. Likeable kid from a good family. Confident but not cocky

I am not a Marino fan but to lump him with those guys is laughable at best. Marino owned most of the passing records until Manning/Brady/Brees came along. As I have said for other QB's though is sometimes it just might be the team letting the QB down and even though I am not a Marino fan this was the case for 1/2 his career or more. I like Mahomes but you guys remember Watson was doing this last year until he got hurt? How did his prices fair after that? Or how about Andrew Luck?

Let's slow our roll. Marino? Seriously? Mahomes isn't at Marino's level yet. Marino is an all-time great who is in the hall of fame. Maybe in a few years, Mahomes will get there, but that's waaaaaaaaaay down the line

I completely agree with you; It will be a long time before Mahomes is a Marino. Just read the post and quote. It was a response to someone comparing him to Trout if Mahomes keeps throwing 40+ td's a year.

We will all look back in 5 years at how cheap his cards were in 2018. Mark it.

![]() How do his prices fair if the Chiefs are bounced out their 1st playoff game and Mahomes has a bad game? I really have no dog in the fight. I have a couple Mahomes I got cheap, one was $15dlvd and the last one of it sold for $75BIN last I looked. Last edited by twisty571; 12-06-2018 at 05:45 PM. |

I think he is really good and had a great season. But i also think a big reason he's been so successful is KC scheme and disguises on offense. What i mean by that is they run a lot of trick plays that aren't traditional. I haven't seen every one of his games but iv'e watched a few, 3 or 4. They have some real speedsters with Hill who can make a lot of things happen if he just gets the ball in his hands. Kelce is pretty good also. When i've seen him play the traditional role without the gimmicky offense he hasn't been as good from what i've seen. We'll have to see how other teams adapt after this season and there's more tape on them. If he can put together another year or two in a row like this season then i'll be a believer. But we've seen countless guys do great and then have a sharp drop off.

Also, there's a Mahomes NT /99 sitting at $4999 OBO on eBay, not $10K. You're misleading, or being misled. Last edited by deemsterz33; 12-06-2018 at 07:52 PM. |

Do you guys think there's any postseason succes baked into his prices, or could a SB appearance spike prices even more?

CAN YOU IMAGINE with his historic 1st season, Mahomes knocking off Brady to go to Superbowl- We all witness the Torch getting passed from the goat Brady to Mahomes... I get chills thinking about it- If that happens prices will explode-

He's obviously going to keep averaging 50+ td's a year for the next 10 years with zero regression with a few super bowls sprinkled in (7 or 8, imo).
Definitely not going to suffer the same fate as Carr, Luck, Wentz, Watson, Dak, Winston, Kaepernick, or Jimmy GQ. Pinky swear. Strong buy for me. |

I consider upside being 2x+ ROI on low to mid priced guys that haven't already set the bar unrealistically high for themselves and have ample room for growth. I kind of feel the MVP is already factored in. Don't get me wrong, if he can manage a super bowl victory this year, things will get crazy. Would I take those odds myself? Not really. |

One extended stretch of bad play, losing streak, or injury tweak and it will get ugly. But I do hope he continues killing it and defies the hobby odds. He's fun to watch. |

Luck is what a Top 7-12 QB in the league. His prices were tremendously inflated to start with. People paid wayyy too much and they won’t take a bath on them. They are probably worth honestly 20-30% of what they started at.

If one wants to spend over $10K, it should be spent on Mike Trout or Connor McDavid.

Andrew Luck is going on 30 Y/O, missed an entire season last year, and most importantly, up until several months ago it was thought that his career was over. That's a lot to bounce back from hobby-wise. His cards are worth about 50% of where they were at his peak btw.
