Way-too-early draft chatter: Seats on Mitch Trubisky bandwagon are available

Posted Nov 9, 2016
Pro Football Focus was on the Mitch Trubisky wagon a month ago, Mel Kiper has Trubisky as his No. 1 quarterback, and NFL.com draft analyst Chad Reuter has purchased a ticket. Reuter's evaluation of Trubisky this week: "His accuracy is impressive; the majority of his throws to the opposite side of the field were on target, and his misses were barely off the mark."
