Mitch Trubisky, North Carolina

Height: 6-3 Weight: 220

Trubisky is likely gone by the time the Cardinals are on the board, so they would need to trade up to get him.  However he is another good sized quarterback that will fit many NFL teams.

He has completed nearly 70 percent of his passes (69.7) this season at North Carolina.  More impressively is his touchdown to interception ratio.

Trubisky has thrown 25 touchdowns to just four interceptions this season.  That is a sign of a good quarterback.  He can read defenses well.

He had a five-touchdown game against Pittsburgh this season while throwing 35-46.  With the weapons he would have in Arizona, it makes him a good fit.

He will go near the top of the draft however.  Don’t be surprised if Trubisky is a member of the Cleveland Browns in 2017.
