The Chicago Bears have had a multitude of Quarterback issues throughout their history and Current Bears Quarterback Mitchell Trubisky hasn't resolved that issue. With two second-round picks in the 2020 NFL Draft, the Chicago Bears may have an opportunity to trade up and draft one of the premier QBs available. Although this may seem like a logical decision, Bears GM Ryan Pace must weigh the benefits as drafting another QB may leave other spots on the roster compromised and therefore preventing a Superbowl run. Austin and Reece Weigh the many costs and benefits that come with drafting a Quarterback and give their takes on how the Bears should handle the situation.
