“Brett, obviously with retrospect now, did a tremendous job on scouting Patrick and then getting first, Andy, and then later, John Dorsey, excited about him,” Hunt told reporters in October. “It truly was an organizational decision to draft him, so I don’t want to minimize that, but Brett deserves a lot of the credit.”

Dorsey didn’t have to work very hard to do this trade considering he got intel from Patrick’s agent…who Veach talked to for 94 straight days about getting Patrick

Based on their intel, Cabott said they expected Mahomes would be taken shortly after the ninth pick. He described the lineup of the Bills, Saints, Browns and Cardinals at the 10th through 13th picks as the “hot corner” for Mahomes.
“We had charted it pretty well,” Steinberg said.

Veach is the foundation to Mahomes becoming a Chief. Nobody else
