Overall B

ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-

No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Bears.

The Zach Rice pick is the one that will follow the Bears into the fall. They took him 41 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Johnson at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the linebacker spot they never got to.

Pick25 Rnd1 R Mason Thomas

In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a problem off the edge. Exactly the need they had to hit.

Pick57 Rnd2 Chris Johnson

A quiet steal in the 57th overall pick: Chris Johnson for less than the market said. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.

Pick89 Rnd3 Gabe Jacas

No edge and no loss on Gabe Jacas in the Round 3 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.

Pick129 Rnd4 DeMonte Capehart

DeMonte Capehart at pick 129 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.

Pick163 Rnd5 Brenen Thompson

A reasonable price with a little left over, Brenen Thompson in slot 163. The roster fit checks out.

Pick239 Rnd7 Roydell Williams
