Reaction from Chicago Bears fans on Twitter was … shall we say, mixed … when their team traded up to select UNC quarterback Mitch Trubisky as the second pick in the NFL Draft on Thursday.
While some hoped for the best from the Ohio native who started for one season as a Tar Heel, others were over the top in their, uh, disappointment.
One did find an interesting bright spot for Trubisky, saying that “he doesn’t have to transition from college” because UNC athletes don’t go to class anyway.
A sampling of the negative reaction on Twitter:

Trubisky fits in great with the #Bears system in that he's used to never winning more than 8 games per year. #NFLDraft
