Mitch "Mr Biscuit" Trubisky-QB-North Carolina | Page 70

Phoenix49ers · 2016-09-29T14:44:50-07:00

A QB worth keeping an eye on throughout the season. This is his first year as a starter and he is leading in several passing categories, has largely looked pretty good this season including a terrific comeback win against Pitt. He comes with decent size at 6'3", has added some bulk during his time at North Carolina and also has the athleticism to take off and run with the football if needed. He has thrown 203 consecutive passes without an interception, the longest current streak in the nation. The offense that North Carolina runs is quite similar to Chip Kelly's offense, its a frantic, one-back up-tempo spread offense that utilizes the no huddle a lot. I'll take the Tar Heels entire WR group as well, incredibly well coached group, excellent route runners with outstanding hands(1 drop all season long). Ryan Switzer is one to watch for sure. That has definitely helped Trubisky out but he's made some really excellent throws at times, beating coverage, making timely decisions and with good ball placement on his passes. https://vine.co/v/5rjQ2h2Vvrl http://www.espn.com/blog/acc/post/_/id/94971/north-carolina-qb-mitch-trubisky-proving-hes-among-nations-elite CHAPEL HILL, N.C. -- They had noticed the fans leaving after Pitt drilled a field goal to run its fourth-quarter lead to 13, but now, as North Carolina drove toward the end zone in the game's final minutes with a chance to pull out a win, the crowd seemed impossibly loud. Bug Howard was sore, having fought off physical defenders all game. Mack Hollins was just a spectator, an injury forcing him to the sideline. Ryan Switzer was so exhausted he compared the drive to an out-of-body experience. Their quarterback though? Mitch Trubisky was cool as a cucumber. "There was not one time when we thought he was nervous or we thought the stage was too big for him," Switzer said. "He was even-keeled the entire time. I think I even got a smile out of him." What's not to smile about? Trubisky is riding high after four games and, with apologies to that guy getting all the headlines at Louisville, he might be the country's hottest quarterback. Let's start with that game-winning drive. North Carolina needed 17 gut-wrenching plays to march 63 yards. It wasn't a thing of beauty. It was a deliberate, gritty, physical performance. On the drive, Trubisky completed three different throws on fourth-and-6 or longer, converting all for a first down. That's an insane statistic, really. Over the past 10 years, only one other Power 5 quarterback has converted more fourth-down throws in the fourth quarter of a one possession game in an entire career. "I wasn't really thinking about it," Trubisky said. "Just thinking about getting the first down, knowing the situation, trying to communicate. We just made it happen." That drive was Trubisky battling, but so much of the past three games have been easy. Trubisky started last week's contest by completing his first 12 throws, which ran his streak of consecutive completions to 30. That was a school record. Overall this season, he's completed 74.5 percent of his throws, second nationally, despite the fact that he has thrown more deep balls (passes of 20 yards or more in the air) than all but nine other Power 5 quarterbacks.

The 3rd pick I do. We never pan out taking the opposite side of a great pass rusher (Lawson, Haralson)

They weren't legit pass rushers though. Hall can get after the QB

Anyway, the point is we must take a QB at No.2 overall.

There are just way too many teams that need a QB. There is no way we can run through that QB gauntlet and still land either a Trubisky or Watson if you think you can defer it until the 2nd round. Even if you trade up your 2nd round pick it still won't cut it. Let's count them, Browns, Jaguars, Jets, Bears and these are only the teams drafting in the top 10.

Agreed, unless you have secret info about a guy like Falk or the Cal kid, who could both probably be had in the 3rd or later. Would be fine with Trubinski or Watson second, but don't trust our leadership to make the right call. Steve Young available? I think he could see stuff that would help.

Trusting ownership or not. I think no qb on the roster forces to pick up at least two qbs this offseason then bring back Lewis if healthy

With the Eagles win tonight, I'm hoping that gauntlet scares the Browns into taking a QB with the 1st pick now

But, they may trade for Jimmy Garoppolo before the draft.

The south Carolina game Garrett was out and Hall still had 2 sacks

I get your reasoning but it's not like we'd be drafting him in the 1st or 2nd...kid has the measurables

I'd still go after Devonte Fields in the 3rd though.

Three of five scouts who spoke with NFL Media indicated that North Carolina redshirt junior QB Mitch Trubisky has the most to gain from his bowl performance.

Trubisky will be facing off with Stanford in the Hyundai Sun Bowl on December 30. One scout believes that "a big game here will start the hype train," while another wants to see how the 6-foot-3, 220-pound redshirt junior handles the spotlight. "He can create a little separation with a big performance," said a third evaluator. Trubisky indicated earlier this week that he had received a first-round draft grade from the college advisory committee. He hasn't officially declared yet -- that figures to come after the Sun Bowl -- but it would be a surprise if he didn't take a jump into the 2017 draft pool when all is said and done.

I think Hall is going to get red flagged at the combine. He has some degenerative shoulder issue that has already been operated on multiple times. His shoulder popped out multiple times this season during games. It's a shame because the kid is talented.

Something to keep an eye on for sure

I can get down with that

Hope your right. I really like the kid.

I see it like this, Browns are drafting number 1 overall followed by either Jacksonville or San Francisco. More likely San Francisco IMO, but it's no secret Myles Garrett is the best player in this draft and can instantly upgrade your defense, so Cleveland goes Garrett #1 overall which leaves Mitch Trubisky. All Trubisky has to do is declare for the draft and he's a 49er, UNLESS!!! Some dumb ass team trades up with the Browns and takes Trubisky #1 overall, which is a win win for the 49ers because guess who's coming off the board next!!!!!!
