The Bears finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a A-. The Bears spent the pick that matters most on Drake Maye, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.
Sinnott has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. Laube falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.
That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They will answer for taking safety early while edge rusher and interior defensive lineman went begging.
In the end it comes back to Drake Maye, and a haul good enough to build on right away.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Drake Maye
In pick No. 3 they get a franchise quarterback at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick26
Rnd1
Brian Thomas Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a go-to option on the outside. A real need, handled.
Pick34
Rnd2
Kool-Aid McKinstry
Kool-Aid McKinstry in pick 34 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick39
Rnd2
Troy Fautanu
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Troy Fautanu in No. 39. It fills a real need, too.
Pick43
Rnd2
Adonai Mitchell
The board had Adonai Mitchell higher than slot 43, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick72
Rnd3
Max Melton
A slide stopped in Round 3, Pick 8, with Max Melton worth more than the price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick75
Rnd3
Jaden Hicks
Fair-plus on Jaden Hicks, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick104
Rnd4
Ben Sinnott
They talked themselves into Ben Sinnott at the 104th pick, and the board did not agree. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick111
Rnd4
Trey Benson
A tidy bit of business in Round 4, Pick 11, where Trey Benson graded well above the range. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick123
Rnd4
Cole Bishop
A surprising call. With edge rusher and interior defensive lineman still to address, they spent pick No. 123 on Cole Bishop, a safety they were not short of.
Pick143
Rnd5
Marist Liufau
Marist Liufau in pick 143 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick177
Rnd6
Dylan Laube
Dylan Laube in the 177th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick191
Rnd6
Joe Milton III
A reach on Joe Milton III in the 191st overall pick; the board had better options right there. A need, and now a little less of one.
