Yes he was put the poster you responded to was correct. White was up there on the majority of draft boards.
So was Ryan Leaf

I honestly think that if we had drafted Mahomes, under Fox, in that O, with that lame ass qb coach, we would now be complaining that we reached on a gimmicky System QB who put gaudy numbers in the Air Raid. We would be so mad that Reid went with the best athlete and turned Mitch into a super Bowl winning QB that is about to head up the dynasty of the ‘20’s.So your whole post is the fact we passed on two other dudes who had no guarantee to be successful here.
Actually, given the track record, its more likely they wouldn't have succeeded here.

Hindsight is 20/20, especially when you remove the context. The same plus for Deshaun Watson.
Lol, if you can't see the difference in arm talent between Mahomes and Trubisky then don't know what to tell you. It is an insult to Mahomes talent and ability to presume the difference between he and Mitch is simply coaching.
You have to be naturally gifted to figure things out as quickly as Mahomes did. We aren't talking about someone who sat for years and years. We are talking about someone that picked things up in a year. He understands the offense whereas Mitch still looks like he struggles with basic concepts in a similar offense. That aint coaching. That is one's own capacity for learning. Mitch looks like a slow learner. Mahomes looks like a fast learner.
As of right now, yeah, but in 8 - 10 years from now...well see.The Chargers traded from 3 to 2 in 1998 and took Ryan Leaf. That is and will always be worse than the Trubisky pick.
They could have taken Charles Woodson or Randy Moss if I think in hindsight like people on here like to do so often.
Well, mahomes is much more talented, but I don't think he really understood the scheme that well during his 50 burger season.
His offense was full of guys who were very open. You combine that with the fact he has a generational arm and it will be lights out. HE was basically playing backyard football in 2018.'
He even admitted it himself that he didn't really know the scheme till about now. Which, I honestly completely believe.
He understood the scheme enough to hit the open guys. Trubs misses reads and doesn't see guys that are open quite a bit.

...which is scary as @*!!. The only consolation prize is they're going to have to pay him so much money that their defense is going to perennially suck.
Every QB misses reads. Every QB lingers on targets. Every qb usually goes to his first reads.
This is no different for mitch as it is aaron rodgers or mahomes.
The difference is that mitch, like you said, can't hit open guys.
I never believed the "cant read defenses" trash take. He reads them fine enough, his issue is confidence and accuracy. There are plenty of times where he sees the read but is late on a decision. He got very good at this near the end of 2018 where he was quick and decisive with the ball like most WCO QB's.
Mahomes, not the issue. The guy believes he can make every throw and unleashes the moment he sees an open guy, which, usually is the first guy he looks at.
Mitch can read the defense well enough.. If he couldn't then he would be throwing a lot more interceptions. His issue is and always will be accuracy and confidence.
He can throw a dime one play and then the next 4 miss a route by 10 yards.
Trubisky has already done way more in his career than Leaf ever did so not sure how time will change that? Please elaborate?As of right now, yeah, but in 8 - 10 years from now...well see.
