Posted Nov 11, 2018
In the history of the NFL, no quarterback that I can uncover has ever been drafted in the first round — or any high round — with as little experience as Mitch Trubisky's 13 starts at North Carolina. Add to that Trubisky is playing in his second system and for his second coaching staff in two seasons, and that system is reputed to be among the most multi faceted playbooks in the league.
