At this point though, he just needs to learn the playbook , and if he can get to where he is supposed to be, then Mahomes will do the rest. And hopefully by the time camp starts, Skyy Moore will also have learned where he is supposed to be.

He shows plenty of pop in some of his releases. So I'm pretty sure he's wasting some steps. When you don't have all-world speed every single step is critical and requires a lot of precision. Waste one or two and the DBs in the NFL will catch up most of the time. The great ones will throw a blanket over your head and beat you about the head and shoulders with their packages.
But when he gets it right he creates enough separation. He just needs to get a degree in route-running.
