Jackson should have been long gone. The Bears pounced, and earned a B. Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Bears were there to profit. Ja'Quinden Jackson, the No. 154 name on the board, should have been long gone before Round 7, Pick 24. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.
If Toia pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The phones were where this weekend was really won.
The Winston Jr. pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick10
Rnd1
Josh Simmons
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front, even if it was a touch early. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41
Rnd2
Malaki Starks
The board fumbled Malaki Starks all the way to Round 2, Pick 9, and they scooped it up. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick49
Rnd2
JT Tuimoloau
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on JT Tuimoloau. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick73
Rnd3
Donovan Jackson
A reach on Donovan Jackson in pick 73; the board had better options right there. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick108
Rnd4
Kevin Winston Jr.
A want over a need in pick No. 108: Kevin Winston Jr. adds a safety while quarterback keeps waiting.
Pick110
Rnd4
TreVeyon Henderson
They barely believed it either: TreVeyon Henderson still on the board at slot 110. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick129
Rnd4
Miles Frazier
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Miles Frazier. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick142
Rnd5
Jared Wilson
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jared Wilson this early at the 142nd overall pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick149
Rnd5
Mason Taylor
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Mason Taylor in pick 149, plain and simple. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick178
Rnd6
Lander Barton
You do not let a linebacker like Lander Barton reach pick No. 178 and blink. They did not. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick193
Rnd6
Jonah Monheim
They paid a round early for Jonah Monheim in the 193rd pick, more than the board wanted. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick204
Rnd6
Davison Igbinosun
They paid up for Davison Igbinosun at the 204th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick206
Rnd6
Carson Schwesinger
Somehow Carson Schwesinger was still sitting there in Round 6, Pick 31, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. It fills a real need, too.
Pick212
Rnd6
Xzavier Henderson
Xzavier Henderson at No. 212 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick216
Rnd6
Bryson Nesbit
Value said wait; Bryson Nesbit in the Round 6 slot says they were not listening. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick222
Rnd7
Le'Veon Moss
They will replay Le'Veon Moss at slot 222 for years; that is how good the value is. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick231
Rnd7
Donovan Edwards
Good price on Donovan Edwards in the Round 7 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick233
Rnd7
Jay Toia
A big swing on Jay Toia at the 233rd overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick240
Rnd7
Ja'Quinden Jackson
Ja'Quinden Jackson at slot 240 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick248
Rnd7
Micah Morris
They talked themselves into Micah Morris at pick 248, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
