The Bears had the 2nd pick in the draft, with very stacked options. With their pick, they went with the QB from North Carolina: Mitch Trubisky. In the moment, that pick made sense. He threw for 3,748 yards and 30 touchdowns in his final college season, making him look ready for the NFL. Well, that was not the case. Trubisky was no where near the player we all thought he would be, which makes us think about how things could have been different.
Want to know who was drafted AFTER Trubisky? Just to name a few we have: T.J Watt, Cooper Kupp, Christian McCaffrey, and Patrick Mahomes. Yes, I said Mahomes. He was picked at #10, and Bears fans have been living with the anger and regret for the past 6 years now.
So, if the Bears were to do it all over again, who would they pick? This may be the easiest question of all time: Mahomes.
Could you imagine Mahomes on the Bears? How many Super Bowl wins Chicago would have?
I'm sorry to put you through this once again Bears fans, but this shows us that many greats fall in a draft and that there is ALWAYS hope!
