FutureA+
A franchise passer in Daniels headlines a B weekend for the Bears. They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Jayden Daniels is the Bears' quarterback, full stop. Good, not great, and the B says as much.
If Mesidor pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. Spending an early pick on safety with interior defensive lineman, running back and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.
For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick5
Rnd1
Laiatu Latu
In Round 1, Pick 5 they get a problem off the edge. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick6
Rnd1
Jayden Daniels
No drama and no debate, Jayden Daniels went about where he belonged in the Round 1 slot. The roster fit checks out.
Pick38
Rnd2
Adonai Mitchell
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Adonai Mitchell in No. 38. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick47
Rnd2
Calen Bullock
A straight-up fair deal on Calen Bullock at slot 47, value and slot in agreement. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick69
Rnd3
Jackson Powers-Johnson
A conviction pick on Jackson Powers-Johnson at pick 69 that the board grades a round light. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick105
Rnd4
Kiran Amegadjie
Good price on Kiran Amegadjie in the 105th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick128
Rnd4
James Williams
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick No. 128 on James Williams with interior defensive lineman, running back and other spots unsolved.
Pick155
Rnd5
Tre Harris
They liked Tre Harris enough to skip the value, taking him in the 155th overall pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick183
Rnd6
Andrew Raym
Andrew Raym at slot 183 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick226
Rnd7
Akheem Mesidor
This one needs a full-page explanation: Akheem Mesidor in the 226th overall pick, miles early. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick239
Rnd7
Trey Knox
They talked themselves into Trey Knox at pick No. 239, and the board did not agree. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
