Yahoo Sports: 1. Mitchell Trubisky, North Carolina — 6-foot-2, 222 pounds — Athletic thrower with zip who likely must adapt to pro-style offense, prove experience (13 starts) isn’t an issue

NFL Analysis: Trubisky measured two inches shorter than expected at the Senior Bowl but apparently gained one of those inches back by the time the combine rolled around. On the field, Trubisky's strong arm and good mobility (he ran a 4.67-second 40) have been catalysts for his hype machine. His deep ball occasionally drifts and can be inconsistent and many of the big big plays in the Tar Heels passing game were run after the catch. But his tape does show some nice touch throws and his ability to extend plays with his legs will serve him well. Trubisky is being considered by some to be the top quarterback in this draft class, going as high as second overall. That would place a tremendous burden on him to immediately step in and be a team's "savior". He's at least a couple of seasons from getting there. Being a starting QB in the NFL at least earns you fantasy draft cred but it just might only be in dynasty drafts.

NFL Draft analysis: "I'm going to be the first one to put my hand up and say I obviously did not see that coming. I really thought that Chicago was excited about Mike Glennon. So they paid him pretty well and then to move up and give up that draft capital for Trubisky, for me, is a big risk." -- Mike Mayock
