It was supposed to be Mitchell Trubisky. The 2017 NFL Draft, the one that produced arguably the most controversial and hotly debated draft picks in Bears history, brought Trubisky to Chicago in what was supposed to end the franchise's search for the next Jim McMahon.
Trubisky's first 2 3/4 seasons haven't produced McMahon-like results, and while he's trending in the right direction over the last month of the 2019 season, questions remain about whether he'll be the presumed starter entering training camp next year.
The Trubisky pick is frustrating on many levels, but nothing creates more angst in the fanbase than the 'what could've been.
