FutureA
Quarterback settled, Williams in the fold, and a D for the Bears. The rest of the league had time to spare on Jaylen Harrell; the Bears did not wait, grabbing him 53 spots ahead at No. 231.
The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. Whatever Caleb Williams becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back. Milton III falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.
It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
In slot 1 they get a passer to set the clock by. A real need, handled.
Pick23
Rnd1
Dallas Turner
In the 23rd overall pick they get juice off the edge at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick50
Rnd2
Cooper DeJean
The board had cheaper options than Cooper DeJean at the Round 2 slot, and it noticed. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick63
Rnd2
Jordan Morgan
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jordan Morgan at pick 63 is the proof. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick82
Rnd3
Rod Moore
No drama and no debate, Rod Moore went about where he belonged in Round 3, Pick 18. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick95
Rnd3
Devontez Walker
A reach for Devontez Walker in the 95th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick126
Rnd4
Beaux Limmer
Beaux Limmer in No. 126 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick132
Rnd4
Mohamed Kamara
No edge and no loss on Mohamed Kamara in pick No. 132; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick147
Rnd5
Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske at the 147th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick160
Rnd5
Javion Cohen
Fair-plus on Javion Cohen, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick188
Rnd6
Ricky Pearsall
A reach on Ricky Pearsall in Round 6, Pick 13; the board had better options right there. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick216
Rnd6
Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at pick 216 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick231
Rnd7
Jaylen Harrell
Value said wait; Jaylen Harrell in slot 231 says they were not listening. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
