Mitch Trubisky (QB, CHI) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 19% of Leagues

ANALYSIS: Chicago Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky is far from a known commodity. However, you are not stashing a backup QB on the end of your bench just for a safe-ish and known commodity, are you? No! That’s nonsense. Okay, so how about Trubisky, who has gone from an awful supporting cast in 2017 to perhaps the most revamped offense in all of football.

He trades the archaic John Fox for the innovative Matt Nagy at head coach alongside the personnel additions of Allen Robinson, Anthony Miller and Trey Burton. Lest we forget that in just 12 games as a rookie, Trubs tallied 248 rushing yards and two TDs. If he gets more comfortable and Nagy recognizes and utilizes his speed, then a 400-yard rushing year is not out of the question.
