Chiefs News: KC considered team best set-up for future

Chiefs news revolves around how Bleacher Report ranked the Kansas City Chiefs as the team best set up for the future entering the 2020 season.

Gary Davenport of Bleacher Report ranked the seven teams who were in the best situation moving forward and unsurprisingly had the Kansas City Chiefs as the number one team on that list.

Essentially the list discussed the teams who were built to last for the next decade (at the very least). The factors in determining this involved having a young, talented quarterback who is still affordable, allowing the team to add other key players while also having solid units on both sides of the ball.

Obviously the Chiefs fall into this category even though Patrick Mahomes is going to get paid within the next year because they already have plenty of other talent on their roster. They were smart to pay players like Travis Kelce, Frank Clark, and Mitchell Schwartz before they were scheduled to pay Mahomes because it allowed them to make those guys happy.

There’s a reason the Kansas City Chiefs are the favorites to win the Super Bowl for the 2020 season and that’s because they have Patrick Mahomes and a plethora of talent at his disposal. A team can only go as far as their quarterback is willing to take them and Mahomes has already gotten them to the pinnacle in just three years in the league (with only two of those being as a starter).
