Smith IS retiring soon. Even if they only view Mahomes as a talented project, the Chiefs, had no real choice but to make sure they selected the QB they wanted in this draft. They will need him in 2018, as for WHATEVER the reasons you want to invent, there will be no worthy QB1 or QB2 on the roster had they not done so.

Oh they had other choices. They could have taken the same old "sign a 49er retread" approach by signing Colin Kaepernick and it still would have been an upgrade over Smith.
After all... in 2016, Smith threw for an abysmal 15 TD's and 8 INT's in 15 games. CK on the other hand threw for 16 TD's and 4 INT's in 12 games...and this was in shakier conditions with a weaker supporting cast!!!
But they chose Mahomes.
