FutureA+
Daniels is the Bears' new face under center. Grade: D+. The rest of the league will want that one back. Jamari Thrash tumbling to the Bears in pick 231 is a gift they did not have to think twice about.
They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. Whatever Jayden Daniels becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer.
Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, interior defensive lineman very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick10
Rnd1
Jayden Daniels
In pick 10 they get their guy under center for the next decade. A real need, handled.
Pick15
Rnd1
Jared Verse
In the 15th pick they get a problem off the edge at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick50
Rnd2
Calen Bullock
A tidy little value on Calen Bullock in pick 50, a step better than break-even. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick74
Rnd3
Jermaine Burton
The board had Jermaine Burton higher than slot 74, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick79
Rnd3
Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson at pick No. 79 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick82
Rnd3
Christian Haynes
By-the-book stuff, Christian Haynes at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick95
Rnd3
TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson in the 95th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick110
Rnd4
Kiran Amegadjie
A quiet steal in No. 110: Kiran Amegadjie for less than the market said. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick118
Rnd4
Cam Hart
Nice patience on Cam Hart, who had no business lasting to the 118th pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick126
Rnd4
Devontez Walker
They will replay Devontez Walker at Round 4, Pick 26 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick147
Rnd5
Kedon Slovis
They took Kedon Slovis at par in the 147th pick, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick188
Rnd6
Jack Nelson
They let Jack Nelson come to them and pounced at the 188th overall pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick197
Rnd6
Dallin Holker
No edge and no loss on Dallin Holker in pick 197; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick217
Rnd6
Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs is a better player than the Round 6 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The roster fit checks out.
Pick219
Rnd6
Nelson Ceaser
Nelson Ceaser at No. 219 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick231
Rnd7
Jamari Thrash
Jamari Thrash in slot 231 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
