yeah 1 guy. Plus u dont draft a guy #2 to wait 3-5 years to "find out"

Dont reply with the "we knew he was a project, he was gonna take time, yada yada"
Yes , you draft guys that need some work, you dont take a guy #2 overall to wait 3-4 years, period.

this is so true...........:tsk:

im not ready to give up on him yet,but its damn close.......

And to think some of my Bear bretheren are starting to compare him too Alex Smith....…..
I sure as hell hope we didn't trade up to get an Alex Smith...…….:gaah:

edit:then I read post 37...……...lol

well for starters, no one EVER would think this. Hell Luck was gonna be a sure fire HOF'er and no one would expect this. SO , yes , no one, including mahomes, thought this. There was no consensus best qb..........your own bear fans have said trubs was the consensus best, som said its watson, others had mahomes, it was split


I had Watson myself...………..

and honestly thats not a bad thing. I really think alex smith was never given his credit

Above average,but never to where he was drafted...…….To trade up for Trubisky and taken as 2nd pick of the draft,I was hoping for a top 10 qb………….

I like how everyone, and I do mean e-v-e-r-y-one, claims to know Mahomes would be this good. And not just with the Chiefs either.

Those people, imo, are full of :bullshit:

No one knew, especially when the consensus best QB in that draft was considered to be Watson.

Note: This post isn't directed at you specifically. I just used your post to make a general statement.
This honestly isn't wrong. I don't remember either player being ranked as top 30 players on most draft boards, and there were real questions about how Mahomes would fare playing in an NFL offense much of which due to his erratic decision making that he's turned into a strength.

Granted Trubisky was also far from a sure thing coming out, but Mahomes could've backfired as much as he's worked out too. The big key here has been one has Andy Reid (and I'm sure having Alex Smith as a teammate didn't hurt) and the other doesn't.

Watson was definitely always ranked as such but just from the quick search I did Trubisky was either just in or just out of the top 30.

Either way, it's still true that many at the time had a hard time placing one clear about the other.

Andy Reid is the freaking qb whisperer. Its insane, maybe the best qb developer of all time.

Patrick Mahomes could go 0/41 with 41 INTs in his next start and still have a higher career passer rating than Trubisky .....

Guess that's not really a Trubisky stat .... My bad

Trubs read this, took his ball and went home today

Bears look like a legit team with chase back there. Efficient and actually using their offensive weapons.
