FutureC
The Bears finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a D-. The trade table was where it all came apart. The Bears shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill. Too much went sideways, and the D- is the honest tally.
Everything downstream of Caleb Williams depends on Caleb Williams, and the building knows it. The Hunt pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at linebacker.
They will need Washington to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped linebacker, which is a strange place to end up.
It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
In No. 1 they get their quarterback of the future at fair value.
Pick9
Rnd1
Joe Alt
In pick No. 9 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick36
Rnd2
Bralen Trice
A straight-up fair deal on Bralen Trice at slot 36, value and slot in agreement. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick38
Rnd2
Tyler Nubin
Value with a capital V on Tyler Nubin in the 38th pick, a genuine coup. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick64
Rnd2
Cooper Beebe
They paid a round early for Cooper Beebe in Round 2, Pick 32, more than the board wanted. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick75
Rnd3
Sedrick Van Pran
A conviction pick on Sedrick Van Pran at the Round 3 slot that the board grades a round light. The roster fit checks out.
Pick94
Rnd3
Zak Zinter
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Zak Zinter. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick95
Rnd3
Leonard Taylor III
Leonard Taylor III in the 95th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick98
Rnd3
Malik Washington
This one needs a full-page explanation: Malik Washington in the 98th overall pick, miles early. It fills a real need, too.
Pick102
Rnd4
Kris Abrams-Draine
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Kris Abrams-Draine well ahead of where he belonged. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick111
Rnd4
Mohamed Kamara
No edge and no loss on Mohamed Kamara in No. 111; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick123
Rnd4
Jalyx Hunt
A surprising call. With linebacker still to address, they spent slot 123 on Jalyx Hunt, a S-EDGE they were not short of.
Pick141
Rnd5
Jordan Travis
A tidy little value on Jordan Travis in pick 141, a step better than break-even. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick143
Rnd5
Jaylen Wright
A real head-scratcher, Jaylen Wright in pick No. 143 is miles ahead of his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
