It’s always boiled down to IF he ends up a franchise QB, then two third rounders and a fourth was a cheap price. Glad we finally got there!Stafford had a pretty incredible season at age 23 (5k and 41). Trubisky is 24. We've seen so many guys who looked good early and then never improved, or even got worse, once there was lots of film on them. Trubisky is a long way from proven. In 5 years, he could be a regular pro bowler or washed out, and neither would surprise me.
Revisionist fantasy football. Giants gave away picks and Phil Rivers to get Eli Manning. Most would give the nod to Rivers as the superior QB. Two Super Bowl wins and 15+ seasons as a franchise QB later. No one in NY is committing suicide over the choice. Two thirds and a fourth is cheap. Two firsts for a generational player in Mack...even cheaper. You’d have to be a Bears fan to understand the franchise QB thing.+ mahomes + picks they could have had.

They were both top 3, gave up like 1 yard more per game, and were within 0.1-0.2 points allowed per game. I’ll say close enough, but no way to really say for certain.
