A fairly ridiculous conclusion, considering that (a) the teams picking 1-9 obviously weren't sold on Mahomes, and (b) the teams picking 11-19 also were in better position than the Chiefs or Broncos to trade up for him, and none of them did it either.
It takes very motivated reasoning to look at that situation and say that Elway was particularly stupid in that situation.
