The phones were a trap the Bears kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D-.

The whole projection now runs through Drake Maye; hit there and everything else looks smarter. The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer. That is an edge rusher worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and running back is still a hole.
