Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Bears.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Thor Griffith; the Bears did not wait, grabbing him 42 spots ahead at pick 148.

The Delp steal is the beam this whole class leans on. For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain.

On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Malaki Starks
In the 20th overall pick they get a downhill hitter at safety. Need was not the driver here.
Pick33 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
Jack Sawyer at the 33rd pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick52 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
A straight-up fair deal on Tate Ratledge at No. 52, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick84 Rnd3 Nazir Stackhouse
They reached into another round for Nazir Stackhouse, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick110 Rnd4 Wyatt Milum
They went early on Wyatt Milum in the Round 4 slot, and the value did not follow. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick116 Rnd4 Oscar Delp
Oscar Delp in pick No. 116 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick148 Rnd5 Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith in No. 148 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick180 Rnd6 Jalen Travis
Jalen Travis at Round 6, Pick 20 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The roster fit checks out.
Pick182 Rnd6 Savion Williams
They talked themselves into Savion Williams at pick 182, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
