What kind of question is being asked, do we trust that Pace will find the next QB? Okay okay, yes Pace will find the next QB.
Now if the next question is will that QB be any good the only correct answer is WHO THE FUCK KNOWS

Nah, dabears70 didn't win the Outland trophy nor was he a first round pick. On top of that do you know if he's ever even been to Madison?

Calling him a Gabe Carimi implies that there are some certain expectations from him.
I think Moses Moreno is a more apt comparison.

The 2015 draft looks worse then it did 3 months again. Nobody from that class built any success from their rookie year, mostly due to injuries.
The 2016 class looks solid but again there are holes and injuries. Can Floyd is good but can he sustain in the NFL? Bullard is below average. All the 4ths haven't shown much. Howard and Whitehair are studs.
Do I trust him to pick a "franchise" QB...not this year. He doesn't hold all the cards when your not picking #1

You're probably just happy that Trevathon won't play anymore this year since you say he was such a bad signing.

Some of us are rooting for him anyway. Rory thinks he's done a bad job and wants him gone.

Yes I do trust Pace. I was never enthusiastic about Fox. First of all everyone and I mean everyone who gets upgraded in responsibilities like going from coordinator to HC or psnl guy to GM makes mistakes early in their careers especially the first year. The key is do they learn from their mistakes. Given his two drafts as some evidence of this I believe Pace is learning from his mistakes. Also not drafting a QB IMO could easily fall to some degree on Fox. An HC from offense could very possibly have pushed harder for Pace to get at least one QB in these two drafts. That seems a very reasonable assumption to me. The other thing about Fox is we have heard that the Bear owners have given Fox more juice in their org because of long time experience as an NFL HC and Pace's inexperience as an NFL GM.
The absolute most important decision a GM makes is his choice for HC. This obviously is what got Emery bounced more than anything. We can only hope and pray the McCaskeys can see the Bears need an HC from offense to finally fix their offense. I do not believe they will fire Fox and replace him with another HC from defense but and hopefully Pace is getting into their ears about this, that the best and most likely only way to fix QB disasters that have plagued this team forever is to hire the best offensive mind they can hire to be their next HC. If Pace is as bright as I believe he is he knows this to be true and will try to sell it hard to his bosses.

He literally has to draft a QB. The current state of the QB position for the Bears is abysmal. Cutler sucks and is expensive, Hoyer is a journeyman who is okay, but lets be honest he isn't going to lead the Bears to the playoffs and then we have Barkley. I'm intrigued by Barkley, but the fact that we haven't seen him to date leads me to believe he is nothing more then a back up. The real fuck up here is that Pace hasn't made a move or drafted a QB through two drafts. That's on him.
As far as your original question - yes, I trust him about as much as a wet fart. Pace has had some solid hits and some busts. Just about like any other NFL GM. Nobody hits on every pick, which is why I'm dumbfounded that he hasn't taken a single QB in 2 drafts to hedge his bets. It seems to me that Pace puts so much pressure on the first round and is always swinging for the fences looking for that franchise player. He's going to have his shot in this draft, I just hope he doesn't get overthink it.

I not only trust Pace to find the right QB, but to pass on him as well. Then we can discuss how awesome of a GM he is because he liked a QB.

Just guessed that you had never been to Madtown, whether or not that was true I don't know, the rest of the post was accurate.

He thought Cutler would get us Mariota. He made no attempt at Wentz. We drafted 7th and 9th overall those years, don't act like we had no chance to try.

It doesn't really matter of I trust them or who I trust more.
Because the next QB is going to be here next year and so will Pace and Fox and probably Loggains.
The only major change is going to be Cutler and at this point it is just a sad broken storyline.
