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-.

Caleb Williams is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

That Trotter Jr. pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, edge rusher very much included.
