The Chicago Bears made headlines moments into the 2017 NFL draft.
The Bears already held the No. 3 pick in the draft, but decided that was just not good enough. General Manager Ryan Pace traded a handful of picks for the No. 2 selection with the San Francisco 49ers. With the higher pick, Chicago selected quarterback Mitchell Trubisky from North Carolina.
The Bears’ pick signals a dangerous trend that has taken hold of the NFL in recent years. Three times in the last five years, two quarterbacks were selected with the first two picks in the draft.
