I'll admit I haven't seen a ton of Mitch Trubisky. I saw maybe two of his games, but didn't come away thinking of him as a top 5 pick. Obviously, he'll get drafted in the top 5.

Does anyone here think that highly of him?

Kap says he is real deal has the size and arm. Wished he would've stayed, because that will be 3 QB in 3 years, but has all the skills needed.


ETA why are you Clowns downvoting what the UNC OC says?

If Jared tricking goff can be number 1 overall, not much surprises me. A lot of these qbs come from similar system, so it wouldn't surprise me for a giant shift in the NFL to occur, with the lack of talent at qb. Guys like Brady, Rodgers, Ryan, brees etc are harder to find, because college relies on a spread system.

My problem with him isn't that he will be a top 5-10 pick in this upcoming NFL draft, it's that he will get drafted over Deshaun Watson. He is a better QB than him in every single way.

Maybe they thought you were talking about Kaepernick. Are we supposed to know who the UNC OC is?

Not a damn thing. He is the next product of the ESPN hype machine, aka The next Blake Bortles.

He's incredibly mobile and has a good, accurate arm. Reminds me a bit of Jeff Garcia. But he could also be Christian Ponder

I was just watching some of his highlights and something I noticed was how the ball jumps out of his hands when he throws it. I'm sure that velocity is what has all the draft analysts giddy.

Yeah from what I've seen he makes all the NFL throws such as the out routes from 15+ yards out. Also, he shows some good footwork and mobility when he needs to use it. Problem is the small body of work. He'll obviously have to kill it at the combine and his Pro day but a NFL team picking in the top 5 will fall in love with him.

Because there has to be a franchise quarterback in every draft so sometimes ESPN makes one.

Only 13 starts in college and he could have come back for his senior year.

Typically you're most comfortable drafting a guy who has been a 2-3 year starter.

Well seeing as how "Kap" is pretty universally considered to be Kaepernick...you knew that...and chose to shorten the not well known Kapiliovic in order to either sound suuuuppper knowledgeable and/or troll.

Jalen Hurts cleaned like 330 this year as an 18 year old......


Tom Brady cant hang clean a loaf of bread, and runs a 5.5 40.



My point, how do the NFl scouts and gms always fall for shite that doesnt matter?

You're right, hang cleans are so 2014. The thing that truly matters these days is how high can he box jump?

Nope. That's irrelevant for draft grades. How many times can he flip a tire? That's what I want to know.
