I get a Cutlerian vibe from this guy. Seems to be built like a franchise QB. Powerful arm, some beautiful passes, perfect bodytype. But he is lacking an "it" factor, is he not? He's not a world-beating, overcome-the-odds, particularly spiriting QB. Looks like he could have an okay career in the NFL in which he wins nothing of consequence.
Well if there was one Andy Reid QB in this entire draft, it's Trubisky, isn't it? Super accurate, doesn't take too many risks with the ball, is very mentally tough and very athletic. He's a slam dunk for the Chiefs to trade up for, if he lasts to the 20s, but in a QB-starved NFL with at least 6 new head coaches looking for their QB, there's no chance he lasts to us. [Reply]

I saw that. Doesn't surprise me one bit. He's very intelligent and his football IQ is fantastic. Richt said he's never had a QB that sees the field like Kaaya, and he's been around some good ones. [Reply]

Kid threw 27 TD's to 7 INT's this year. 69 TD's to 24 INT's for his 3 year career at Miami.
I don't know why the kid isn't receiving any more hype than he is. This guy may be the steal of the draft. [Reply]
Reid is going to have a raging hard-on for his film-review. He's going to see this guy as a more aggressive, less athletic Alex Smith and a future leader in the QB room.
I don't think Mahomes will be there and I don't think Dorsey will trade up because I think they both expect to be able to get Webb at the back of the 1st. [Reply]

I know some of the picks won't hit, but I hate giving up picks especially for what it will take to get Mahomes. He's just too perfect of s fit for Arians offense for the cards to pass on I think.
This team is really good, but needs some depth and starters in d.
If Foster and Webb are there at 27, I'd take ine and be prepared to trade up to 28 for the other. [Reply]

Likewise. That was my scenario in the Foster failed test thread. It might take you next year's 1st to get that pick (GB is a good target there), but it might be worth it. [Reply]

Sure. Do it.
They won't have a chance next year for a player like Foster anyway [Reply]
Foster falling would be a blessing. That's how said teams like the pats and steelers picking later every year sTay good. Bad teams pass on these guys because of ine reason or another, good teams with good coaching staffs and good infrastructure take them and it works out.
If you could have Peters, Foster, and Jones on this d at the 3 levels foe the next 10 years, you'd be pretty excited [Reply]

Similar thinking here, yet that extends to Nate Peterman on day 2 as well.
Unbroken, unrefined versions of Smith. Not as consistently accurate.. maybe still not as naturally athletic... but also not carrying a decade's worth of baggage for getting trampled by pro pass rushes. [Reply]
