Larceny in No. 204 lands the Bears a B, Judkins and all.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Quinshon Judkins got past him. The Bears do not have to explain a thing at the Round 6 slot.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback. Reaching for Cornelius left real value on the table behind him.

Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In Round 1, Pick 17 they get a load in the middle. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick40 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
A tidy bit of business in pick 40, where Tate Ratledge graded well above the range. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick48 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
This one needs a full-page explanation: JT Tuimoloau in pick No. 48, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick79 Rnd3 Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius at the Round 3 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick154 Rnd5 Parker Brailsford
The board fumbled Parker Brailsford all the way to the 154th overall pick, and they scooped it up. It fills a real need, too.
Pick204 Rnd6 Quinshon Judkins
They barely believed it either: Quinshon Judkins still on the board at No. 204. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick228 Rnd7 Barrett Carter
Barrett Carter at slot 228 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The roster fit checks out.
Pick243 Rnd7 Kyren Lacy
No drama and no debate, Kyren Lacy went about where he belonged in the 243rd pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
