The Bears let McAlister fall into their laps, and walked away with a B. Somebody in No. 241 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Bears sat still while Eric McAlister, the No. 204 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. They went 3 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
The back end got a real overhaul.
In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Jermod McCoy
In pick 25 they get a sticky cover corner, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick57
Rnd2
Chris Bell
Chris Bell slid further than he should have, and Round 2, Pick 25 is lovely value for the wide receiver. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick60
Rnd2
Keith Abney II
Nice patience on Keith Abney II, who had no business lasting to the 60th pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick89
Rnd3
Romello Height
Romello Height at the 89th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick129
Rnd4
Bud Clark
Steal is underselling it; Bud Clark at pick No. 129 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick239
Rnd7
Eric McAlister
Circle this one: Eric McAlister at the Round 7 slot is a fall that decides a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick241
Rnd7
Eric McAlister
You do not let a wide receiver like Eric McAlister reach slot 241 and blink. They did not. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
