FutureC
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Bears and Stutsman: B. This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Danny Stutsman, the No. 85 name on the board, stolen at slot 233.
Conner has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.
The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
James Pearce Jr.
In pick 12 they get a premier pass rusher at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick39
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker at slot 39 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick55
Rnd2
Alfred Collins
They paid sticker price for Alfred Collins in Round 2, Pick 23, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick62
Rnd2
Hollin Pierce
They talked themselves into Hollin Pierce at pick No. 62, and the board did not agree. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick65
Rnd3
Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson in the Round 3 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick72
Rnd3
Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori in the 72nd overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick76
Rnd3
Kaleb Johnson
A running back of that caliber at No. 76 is the definition of value, full stop. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick86
Rnd3
Hayden Conner
They left a pile of value on the table to take Hayden Conner this early at the 86th pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick123
Rnd4
Mason Taylor
Taking Mason Taylor in slot 123 is close to grand larceny; a tight end that good had no business lasting this long. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick130
Rnd4
Jake Majors
The board fumbled Jake Majors all the way to No. 130, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick147
Rnd5
Connor Colby
Connor Colby at the 147th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick193
Rnd6
Seth McLaughlin
Seth McLaughlin at Round 6, Pick 18 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick233
Rnd7
Danny Stutsman
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Danny Stutsman in pick No. 233, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick240
Rnd7
Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. at pick 240 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A need, and now a little less of one.
