Williams is the plan now, and the Bears grade out a B-. The Bears spent the pick that matters most on Caleb Williams, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.
Landing Carson that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
Every board in the league had Paul lower, and that gap is the story. The trades cost them a sliver of value they did not need to spend.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
In pick No. 1 they get a long-term answer under center. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick24
Rnd1
JC Latham
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a cornerstone up front at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick56
Rnd2
Malachi Corley
A reasonable price with a little left over, Malachi Corley in No. 56. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick75
Rnd3
Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul at slot 75 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick122
Rnd4
Caelen Carson
Caelen Carson in the 122nd overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick174
Rnd5
Dallin Holker
They let Dallin Holker come to them and pounced at the Round 5 slot. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
