Draft Note by Jordan Heck
Week 3 vs. Los Angeles Chargers
In Week 2, Patrick Mahomes had nearly an identical stat line as Week 1 through the air. Week 1 had Mahomes finish with 337 yards and three touchdowns, and Week 2 had him finish with 343 yards and three touchdowns. The only difference being that Mahomes had a rushing score in the first week, and added an interception in the second week. Still, if Mahomes is going to keep finishing with 300+ yards and 3+ touchdowns then there's no reason to even read this weekly blurb. Having said that, Mahomes does get a tough matchup against the Chargers this week who have given up a total of 372 passing yards with one score. Although Mahomes did finish with over 300 yards in his game against the Chargers last season. He should be viewed as a must-start option in Week 3.

Draft note
Mahomes finished as the No. 4 quarterback in 2020, though his per game average was the best in the league, edging out Josh Allen 24.9 to 24.7. He finished No. 6 in 2019 (with the No. 4 average) after a No. 1 overall finish the year before. He’s the odds-on favorite to finish with the most fantasy points in 2021 behind the Chiefs’ revamped offensive line.
