Consensus ECR25Pick

Delta-21

FADE

Elite name, dead-zone projection. The market pays QB4 prices for production the flat is full of. You don't have to believe he finishes there. You just have to notice you're paying elite money for a bet the points don't back.

The Take

Consensus is 21 picks high on Mahomes. The wolves let it go.

The case

Consensus says 25. The wolves say 46. Someone is wrong, and the wolves priced it. He sits in the dead zone. Priced like the elite, projects like the middle, and the middle runs eighteen deep. The points do not back the price. Do not be the drafter who pays yesterday's price.

Where to draft him

Round 4 · pick 10

Consensus slot

Round 3 · pick 1

Dead-zone quarterback. Interchangeable with the next few names off the board, so the wolves pass at the early 3rd ADP and stream the position late.

Market behavior

Dead Zone

Structural mid-tier quarterback. Interchangeable with the next arms off the board; the wolves stream the position.
