Thirty-one other rooms let Jake Slaughter slide, and the Bears were the ones holding the card at pick 89. Highway robbery.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. They left with interior defensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
