Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Bears came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close. No fireworks, but a solid B+.

Smith has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. That is an offensive lineman worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

The Bears paired the rookies with proven help, Trey McBride leading the way.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.
