Grand theft in No. 233: the Bears steal Ransom and grade out a A. Thirty-one other rooms let Lathan Ransom slide, and the Bears were the ones holding the card at Round 7, Pick 17. Highway robbery. It holds up to a second look, which is why it earns the A.
They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. Reaching for Walker left real value on the table behind him.
They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Abdul Carter and all.
Pick Analysis
Pick23
Rnd1
Abdul Carter
In pick 23 they get a double-digit-sack hope, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick39
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
A straight-up fair deal on Tyler Booker at slot 39, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick49
Rnd2
Deone Walker
Deone Walker at No. 49 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick72
Rnd3
Xavier Watts
They will replay Xavier Watts at the 72nd pick for years; that is how good the value is. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick87
Rnd3
Tyleik Williams
Somehow Tyleik Williams was still sitting there in the Round 3 slot, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick117
Rnd4
Quinshon Judkins
Taking Quinshon Judkins in Round 4, Pick 16 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick147
Rnd5
Jake Majors
Jake Majors at pick No. 147 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick158
Rnd5
Willie Lampkin
The board had cheaper options than Willie Lampkin at the 158th overall pick, and it noticed. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick193
Rnd6
Smael Mondon Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Smael Mondon Jr. at slot 193 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick233
Rnd7
Lathan Ransom
Lathan Ransom in the Round 7 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick240
Rnd7
Seth McLaughlin
Seth McLaughlin in pick 240 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
