I think Trubisky also knew this was his best chance of being picked on the 1st round, that's how much confidence he has and his winner spirit.

I would never hire a guy who told me he had nothing more to learn on his last job while not having won anything, individualy or in the team, and that sat on the bench for 2/3rs of the time.

Its not only the small number of starts, but why the small number of stats, and why didn't he stay another year to make sure he was going to be the best QB.

I also don't see any attribute that makes him a sound prospect... he's a project at best and IMHO not even the best project in this draft.. Kizer and Webb have much better measurables.

Actually ... no, there's not ... at least not in Mitch's case ... as there one in the same in THIS CASE ...

Well, since usually a coaching staff and FO gets four years to prove themselves, ( Well in a normal organization anyway ), and since most highly drafted QB's get at least three years to prove themselves, they had better be right. Because when you do the math, their careers will depend on it.

There's no way I'd put my career at stake on a one hit wonder.

Yes.

My line of thinking is that for me, evaluation of a player is about skillset not about circumstances.

I never said Mitch had a high grade, that's your assumption. All I said was that the conversation about whether he started or didn't start or didn't beat this person out and why etc...was anecdotal to me whether I have a high grade on him or not.

Hmmnnn...He's an above average athlete. He's got ability to improvise. He throws the ball clean with a consistent and repeatable motion. He's tough. He's got a good frame. He executed his college offense at high level.

That last part is a big part of what it comes down to. I do find it interesting that some are saying no way to Trubisky because he's only had one year to look at while others are saying go all in for Darnold next year base on - ONE YEAR. (Not saying you are, Pit). What it Darnold's next season is horrible? What if he gets injured and doesn't have a next season? I'm not sure where I stand on that. Just some things to think about, but I do like the potential that I see in Trubisky.

They also say he might not come out next year. You can't just think the FO is saying wait till next year on a QB. There might not be a next year. They have to plan now, with what they got and how to use it. As long as they don't use the #1, they can take any QB after that.

That's a terrible thought process.

Here is one that is more amazing. There are people dismissing Trub's lack of starts in college, but many people are dissing Jimmy G because he only has 4 career starts in the NFL, while he had....let me think.....43 career starts in college.

Their "logic tells them that Jimmy G is risky because of lack of starts, but Trub's lack of starts is not risky. LOL

Who was the last QB who had this little starts? Sanchez?

That's fair. My point is that there is risk w/any pick.
