Whoever sat across the table from the Bears should ask for a receipt. They cleaned the room out, prying loose far more value than they gave up, and it was the quiet MVP of their weekend.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. They banked enough surplus on Briningstool to cover a lot of smaller sins.

Reaching for Beebe left real value on the table behind him. The Chase Young pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
