The Bears turned the phones into found money: A-. Whoever sat across the table from the Bears should ask for a receipt. They cleaned the room out, prying loose far more value than they gave up, and it was the quiet MVP of their weekend. This is how you run a draft, and the A- reflects it.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. Pearsall has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. Puni falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.
Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Laiatu Latu and all.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Laiatu Latu
In pick No. 3 they get a disruptor off the edge at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick17
Rnd1
Javon Bullard
In the 17th pick they get an enforcer at safety. More want than need.
Pick33
Rnd2
Troy Franklin
Troy Franklin at slot 33 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick35
Rnd2
J.J. McCarthy
J.J. McCarthy at pick 35 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick67
Rnd3
Jackson Powers-Johnson
A reach for Jackson Powers-Johnson in the 67th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick69
Rnd3
Denzel Burke
A tidy bit of business in No. 69, where Denzel Burke graded well above the range. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick101
Rnd4
Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie in Round 4, Pick 1 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick105
Rnd4
Dominick Puni
A slide stopped in the Round 4 slot, with Dominick Puni worth more than the price. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick120
Rnd4
Khyree Jackson
A conviction pick on Khyree Jackson at the Round 4 slot that the board grades a round light. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick128
Rnd4
Gabriel Murphy
Gabriel Murphy in the 128th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick142
Rnd5
Antwaun Powell-Ryland
No drama and no debate, Antwaun Powell-Ryland went about where he belonged in pick No. 142. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick157
Rnd5
Ben Sinnott
By-the-book stuff, Ben Sinnott at pick 157 squarely in line with his ranking. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick162
Rnd5
Ainias Smith
No edge and no loss on Ainias Smith in the 162nd overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick183
Rnd6
Ricky Pearsall
They paid a round early for Ricky Pearsall in No. 183, more than the board wanted. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick226
Rnd7
Delmar Glaze
Delmar Glaze at Round 7, Pick 6 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
