Best value of the weekend goes to the Bears for Carter: B+. This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Barrett Carter, the No. 80 name on the board, stolen at No. 233. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B+.
The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The cost of the Walker reach is exactly the players who went right after him. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.
Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Mykel Williams
In slot 30 they get juice off the edge. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39
Rnd2
Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge is a better player than Round 2, Pick 7 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick43
Rnd2
Deone Walker
Deone Walker at No. 43 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick44
Rnd2
JT Tuimoloau
A conviction pick on JT Tuimoloau at pick 44 that the board grades a round light. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick72
Rnd3
Donovan Jackson
They went early on Donovan Jackson in the 72nd pick, and the value did not follow. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick107
Rnd4
Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander at the Round 4 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick108
Rnd4
Jake Majors
A quiet steal in the 108th overall pick: Jake Majors for less than the market said. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick137
Rnd4
Quinshon Judkins
The board fumbled Quinshon Judkins all the way to pick No. 137, and they scooped it up. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick147
Rnd5
Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren at pick No. 147 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick193
Rnd6
Hayden Conner
Steal is underselling it; Hayden Conner at the 193rd overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick233
Rnd7
Barrett Carter
They robbed the room for Barrett Carter here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It fills a real need, too.
Pick240
Rnd7
Jared Wilson
Taking Jared Wilson in the Round 7 slot is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
