Larceny in pick 106 lands the Bears a B-, Burks and all. The trade table was a mismatch, and the Bears were on the right end of it, hauling in a fortune in surplus value. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.
Getting Burks where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They are betting McClellan proves the room right and everyone else wrong.
They left with interior defensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick Analysis
Pick2
Rnd1
Arvell Reese
In slot 2 they get a downhill thumper at linebacker at fair value.
Pick44
Rnd2
Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
A straight-up fair deal on Emmanuel McNeil-Warren at Round 2, Pick 12, value and slot in agreement. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick59
Rnd2
Josiah Trotter
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Josiah Trotter. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick70
Rnd3
Mike Washington Jr.
No drama and no debate, Mike Washington Jr. went about where he belonged in the 70th pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick89
Rnd3
Logan Jones
By-the-book stuff, Logan Jones at the 89th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick106
Rnd4
Deion Burks
A wide receiver of that caliber at pick No. 106 is the definition of value, full stop. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick129
Rnd4
Chris McClellan
The board had cheaper options than Chris McClellan at pick No. 129, and it noticed. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick146
Rnd5
Skyler Gill-Howard
Skyler Gill-Howard in the 146th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick149
Rnd5
Dametrious Crownover
Dametrious Crownover at slot 149 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
