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 think Dilfer's pretty smart about his stuff but it's hard to buy into everything he says because he won't say one negative thing about any of them...
Bottom line, as I said before we drafted Mahomes last spring, all of these QBs with good talent could become stud franchise QBs. But it's gonna come down more so to where they are drafted, not what they do personally.
If Cleveland takes Pat, Deshaun, or Trubisky and throws them into the fire last year, they all would fail and probably wind up as busts. And not the kind that go into the HOF. [Reply]

Veach made Dorsey pay up, so we paid the price necessary.
I will never forget the bold move made by this franchise to acquire Mahomes.

Most of the QBs need work, but he needs the most work by far and I don't think he'll ever fix his mechanics especially not by 2018 when I want our drafted QB to start by. Posted via Mobile Device

Kizer and Mahomes are 2nd/3rd rounders if the draft had decent QB talent. Unfortunately it doesn't and so they are being talked about as potential 1st rounders. They feel like Geno Smith all over again.

Every front office is eyeing 2018 for qbotf....
Too much defensive and offensive skill position talent atop this draft.
