They just now are confirming what we already knew.

Yep and I am done arguing with people on whether he is worth it or where he might go. Same goes with Garoppolo as well.

Yeah, stick with your gut. This stuff isn't a science, it's an art.

"Mitch Trubisky

Before this gets out of hand, it should be established that Mitch Trubisky is not a bad quarterback prospect. He is a quality prospect who should turn out as a passable starting quarterback in the NFL. That being said, his post-drop footwork is consistently problematic, especially when throwing to his left or when throwing vertically.

Trubisky's first fault is progressively leaning back as he looks for a receiver and prepares to throw. By forcing that much weight on his back foot, Trubisky is forcing himself to exert unnecessary effort to bring his body forward, which is one of many ways that a quarterback can disrupt the synchronization of his throwing motion. Rearing back also makes it near impossible for Trubisky to properly use his plant foot. In the clip above, his plant foot is dangling in the air for a second, then is barely planted in the ground when Trubisky goes to throw.

The second error Trubisky makes is not following through with his motion. Trubisky does not follow through his motion and does not get any snap at the end of his rotation, leaving him to loft the ball rather than truly throw it. Trubisky restricted any chance of properly driving on the ball and putting this throw on a line.

This is a recurring issue for Trubisky. That is not to say he does this every time he goes vertically, but it shows up multiple times in each game and it's a tough theme to ignore."


To be fair Klassen had Vernon Adams and Trevone Boykin rated higher than Carson Wentz and Dak Prescott last year.

I like reading his commentary but he seems to be out in left field a lot, more interested in being a contrarian than giving an honest evaluation.

No way Lynch takes Mike Williams and forever cements the insults he's received about being Matt Millen 2.0. Lynch is out to prove himself as a GM and if Mike Williams failed to warrant his high draft spot, the STORM over Lynch would be KATRINA-sized!

"Positives
Looks the part; prototypical size, build and arm strength
Shows excellent accuracy and touch, particularly on throws in the intermediate portion of the field
Good leadership and command of the offense
Good athleticism; can scramble out of trouble and hurt opponents with his legs

Negatives
Lack of experience
Extremely talented supporting cast and offensive system inflate his stats
Inconsistent mechanics and footwork
Poor deep ball accuracy"
They lost me at this point

He had a decent supporting cast but I wouldnt call it excellent. His best receiver was an undersized slot receivet, the next best receiver ended up missing most of the season due to injury. Hood was a quality back but could end up going as late as the 6th round and the OL was so-so at best.

They can't be talking about the oline

What my gut tells me about Trubisky is If we do end up drafting him I hope I am wrong!

That kind of thinking will get him fired.
I'm a huge Trubisky fan, but he's super raw. He's similar to Jared Goff last year; he does not belong anywhere near a football field as a rookie. He might even need a good year & a half before he's ready to take over IMO. But once he gets going, he's going to be a great QB if he works hard and is a serious person.

If he comes to a press conference with his hat backwards, it won't be a good sign for him.

He doesn't have Clemson's offense, but North Carolina did score 40.7 points per game led by the great Marquise Williams in 2015. I like Trubisky as an NFL prospect and think he may be the top QB in the class, but their offense was just as effective with Marquise Williams under center.

It's not like they lost a ton of talent between 2015 and 2016 (not a single player from North Carolina was drafted in 2015). They returned their top RB (Hood) and 4 of their top 5 receivers (Switzer, Hollins, Howard, Proehl). Hollins only played in 7 games, but the offense was still largely the same as it was in 2015. They lost Landon Turner on the offensive line and Quinshad Davis at WR (neither of whom were drafted).

Notre Dame lost its two best offensive linemen (Ronnie Stanley, Nick Martin), its starting RB (CJ Prosise), and 5 of its 6 leading receivers from 2015 (Will Fuller, Chris Brown, Corey Robinson - to injury, Alize Jones - to injury, and Amir Carlisle). The 6th WR got hurt this year and only played in 8 games (Torii Hunter Jr). Kizer was able to score 33.5 points/game (excluding the NC State hurricane game) with a terrible supporting cast a year after scoring 34.2 points/game with a great supporting cast.

North Carolina returned almost everyone and went from scoring 40.7 points/game under Marquise Williams to 34.8 points/game under Trubisky (excluding the Virginia Tech hurricane game). Their offense and system would have produced great stats without a great QB.

He's just really raw, we'll have to wait a season or two before he can start. If we sign a veteran qb, he can sit a year before he takes over.
