Lawson should have been long gone. The Bears pounced, and earned a A-. Call it larceny. Deontae Lawson sat on the board until the 147th overall pick, and the Bears did not need to be asked twice.
The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Landon Dickerson deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.
In short, they turned a good board into a better roster, and it shows.
Pick Analysis
Pick10
Rnd1
Princely Umanmielen
In pick No. 10 they get a bendy edge with upside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39
Rnd2
Tate Ratledge
They read the board right and Tate Ratledge was the payoff at the 39th pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick87
Rnd3
Dylan Sampson
Dylan Sampson in Round 3, Pick 23 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick147
Rnd5
Deontae Lawson
The board fumbled Deontae Lawson all the way to slot 147, and they scooped it up. It fills a real need, too.
Pick193
Rnd6
Eli Stowers
Eli Stowers at No. 193 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick233
Rnd7
Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim is a better player than the 233rd overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick240
Rnd7
DJ Campbell
Taking DJ Campbell in the Round 7 slot is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
