FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Bears a B+. They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Seth McLaughlin, 85 picks early at pick No. 149.
The Gordon II value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.
The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.
Pick Analysis
Pick20
Rnd1
Tyler Booker
In the Round 1 slot they get a plug-and-play piece up front, though the board says they badly overpaid.
Pick41
Rnd2
Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant in No. 41 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick45
Rnd2
Malaki Starks
They barely believed it either: Malaki Starks still on the board at the 45th overall pick. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick57
Rnd2
Marcus Mbow
Good price on Marcus Mbow in pick 57, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick72
Rnd3
TreVeyon Henderson
They robbed the room for TreVeyon Henderson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick110
Rnd4
Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor at Round 4, Pick 9 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick121
Rnd4
Jake Majors
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jake Majors in the 121st pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick147
Rnd5
Emery Jones Jr.
They will replay Emery Jones Jr. at pick No. 147 for years; that is how good the value is. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick149
Rnd5
Seth McLaughlin
They reached into another round for Seth McLaughlin, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick193
Rnd6
Cobee Bryant
They let Cobee Bryant come to them and pounced at No. 193. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick197
Rnd6
Ty Hamilton
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Ty Hamilton. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick210
Rnd6
Cam Jackson
They jumped the gun on Cam Jackson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick234
Rnd7
Ollie Gordon II
Ollie Gordon II in pick 234 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick235
Rnd7
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A wide receiver of that caliber at the Round 7 slot is the definition of value, full stop. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick242
Rnd7
Donovan Smith
Fair-plus on Donovan Smith, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
