Is it revisionism?
Trubisky was rated higher than Mahomes and Watson, and some felt the Browns should have taken him at number 1. That was the analysis.
It had nothing to with Ryan Pace being a gambler. He was following scouts. Actually Ryan Pace has made some outstanding draft picks over the years.
And when the bears went 12-4, and appeared to be super bowl bound, everyone was praising the bears and Trubisky. It wasn’t until the following year, when the chiefs won the SB that people started to slam the pick.
Darnell Mooney, Jaylon Johnson, David Montgomery, Roquin Smith...are just some Of the examples of pace’s ability to draft. Excellent picks.
And throw in Eddie Jackson and Tariq Cohen ....and Cole Kmet looks like he is going to be a stud TE.
The bears have been to the PO twice out of the past 3 years, with one of the best defenses in the league, and solid offensive weapons. Pace deserves some Credit for that.
