FutureA+
The Bears answered their biggest question with Williams. Grade: B-. The search is over. The Bears handed the keys to Caleb Williams, and the whole operation now runs on his development. No fireworks, but a solid B-.
The Edwards pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close.
Spending an early pick on safety with interior defensive lineman and linebacker open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. They are betting Milton III proves the room right and everyone else wrong.
Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick2
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
In pick 2 they get their guy under center for the next decade. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick13
Rnd1
Rome Odunze
In No. 13 they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick34
Rnd2
Terrion Arnold
Nice patience on Terrion Arnold, who had no business lasting to the 34th overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick51
Rnd2
Tyler Guyton
A slide stopped in slot 51, with Tyler Guyton worth more than the price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick66
Rnd3
Gabriel Murphy
They paid up for Gabriel Murphy at pick No. 66 when waiting would have done the job. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick67
Rnd3
Javon Bullard
Good price on Javon Bullard in the 67th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick80
Rnd3
Roman Wilson
By-the-book stuff, Roman Wilson at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick100
Rnd3
Mike Sainristil
Taking Mike Sainristil in Round 3, Pick 37 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick105
Rnd4
Jaden Hicks
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending No. 105 on Jaden Hicks with interior defensive lineman and linebacker unsolved.
Pick111
Rnd4
Malachi Corley
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Malachi Corley in pick No. 111, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick123
Rnd4
Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in slot 123 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick149
Rnd5
Joe Milton III
This one needs a full-page explanation: Joe Milton III in the 149th overall pick, miles early. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick167
Rnd5
Sione Vaki
Sione Vaki at pick 167 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick169
Rnd5
Daijun Edwards
The board fumbled Daijun Edwards all the way to Round 5, Pick 33, and they scooped it up. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick191
Rnd6
LaDarius Henderson
LaDarius Henderson at the 191st pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It fills a real need, too.
Pick231
Rnd7
Christian Jones
They robbed the room for Christian Jones here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
