The Bears won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B. You can hear the double-takes from here. The Bears took Darius Robinson at No. 81, roughly 38 spots before his name belonged. No fireworks, but a solid B.
The phones were where this weekend was really won. They will regret leaving linebacker for another day if the season turns on it.
The Saquon Barkley deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Jared Verse
In Round 1, Pick 14 they get a premier pass rusher at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick16
Rnd1
Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In the 16th pick they get protection for the quarterback. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick26
Rnd1
Xavier Legette
In pick 26 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick37
Rnd2
Tyler Nubin
Nothing to complain about; Tyler Nubin went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick38
Rnd2
Kalen King
By-the-book stuff, Kalen King at the Round 2 slot squarely in line with his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick39
Rnd2
Chop Robinson
No edge and no loss on Chop Robinson in pick No. 39; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick43
Rnd2
Jackson Powers-Johnson
They liked Jackson Powers-Johnson enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 43. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick48
Rnd2
Ja'Tavion Sanders
They paid sticker price for Ja'Tavion Sanders in Round 2, Pick 16, and that is fine. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick50
Rnd2
T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat in the Round 2 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick51
Rnd2
Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice at the 51st pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick71
Rnd3
Cooper Beebe
They took Cooper Beebe at par in slot 71, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick81
Rnd3
Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at pick No. 81 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick110
Rnd4
Ray Davis
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ray Davis. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick129
Rnd4
Joe Milton III
They left a pile of value on the table to take Joe Milton III this early at pick 129. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick145
Rnd5
Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at the Round 5 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick176
Rnd6
Isaiah Williams
A conviction pick on Isaiah Williams at pick No. 176 that the board grades a round light. It fills a real need, too.
Pick177
Rnd6
Jared Wiley
They talked themselves into Jared Wiley at the 177th pick, and the board did not agree. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
