The process of developing Mitch Trubisky as the franchise quarterback of the Chicago Bears began well before Matt Nagy was ever hired as Bears head coach, or agents for Trey Burton, Taylor Gabriel or Allen Robinson ever got a first phone call from the Bears.
And it has unfolded in three distinct phases, all with the end game of not only bringing in weapons for Trubisky, but, more important, developing him into the ultimate offensive weapon in a Bears offense, the ignition switch for all the other supposed weapons.
Because unless he proves out to be exactly that, then Robinson is no better off than he was with Blake Bortles, or Taylor Gabriel just a pricier version of Kendall Wright.
