FutureA
Larceny in the 193rd pick lands the Bears a A-, Fitzgerald and all. The Bears did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Ryan Fitzgerald fell into slot 193.
Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it.
Bottom line, they did the job about as well as it can be done.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Jack Sawyer
In No. 25 they get a problem off the edge. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39
Rnd2
Tyler Warren
You do not let a tight end like Tyler Warren reach the Round 2 slot and blink. They did not. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick41
Rnd2
Kaleb Johnson
Kaleb Johnson at slot 41 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick72
Rnd3
Omarr Norman-Lott
Omarr Norman-Lott at the 72nd pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick89
Rnd3
Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson in the 89th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick126
Rnd4
Jake Majors
The board fumbled Jake Majors all the way to Round 4, Pick 25, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick147
Rnd5
Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. in pick 147 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick165
Rnd5
Kalel Mullings
A running back of that caliber at pick No. 165 is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick193
Rnd6
Ryan Fitzgerald
Ryan Fitzgerald at slot 193 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick233
Rnd7
Seth McLaughlin
Seth McLaughlin at No. 233 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
