Potential NFL landing spots

The team in the number one spot is one of the hottest names for Trubisky. The Cleveland Browns are slotted in at number one, and as usual are looking for a franchise signal caller.

Trubisky, a Mentor, Ohio native, has often said that his dream NFL team is the Cleveland Browns.

If you go thirty minutes west of Mentor, you arrive in Cleveland, which would give Mitch the opportunity to turn around his hometown franchise. The Browns actually have the 1st overall pick, and the 12th overall pick, giving them two chances at Trubisky.

Another team that has been rumored to be in on the Trubisky sweepstakes is the San Francisco 49ers.

The Niners, who recently fired their GM, Trent Baalke, and Head Coach, Chip Kelly, appear to be in full rebuild mode.

Since Colin Kaepernick had an incredible first two seasons as a starter, he has flamed out.

Teams have figured out how to defend him, which resulted in the Niners struggling the last couple seasons.

This situation could be great for Mitch, seeing as the whole franchise would be able to build around him, and not about Trubisky having to fit in.

Several more teams that have been rumored to have interest in Trubisky are the Bears, Jets, Bills, and Cardinals. Of all those situations, the Cardinals would seem to be the best fit there. In Arizona, Trubisky would be given time to wait, and learn the offense behind Carson Palmer. The Cardinals are one year removed from an NFC title game, and they faltered this season in part of Palmer’s poor play.

There are a host of good situations for Mitch to land in next season, should he go. His incredible arm talent is what has earned him this opportunity, and it appears to be good enough to lead an NFL team in the postseason one day.

No matter the situation Mitch lands in, the team will be getting a player fully capable of leading their franchise.
