The Bears worked the phones like thieves and earned a A-. The Bears clearly saw something nobody else did in Joe Milton III, taking him 42 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced.
They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. On value alone, Randolph Jr. makes the weekend a net positive.
The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.
Bottom line, with Jackson Powers-Johnson leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
Jackson Powers-Johnson
In the 27th overall pick they get protection for the quarterback, though the board says they badly overpaid.
Pick35
Rnd2
Adonai Mitchell
A tidy little value on Adonai Mitchell in pick No. 35, a step better than break-even. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick46
Rnd2
Ja'Tavion Sanders
They paid a round early for Ja'Tavion Sanders in the 46th pick, more than the board wanted. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick55
Rnd2
Ja'Lynn Polk
Ja'Lynn Polk in Round 2, Pick 23 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick72
Rnd3
Javon Bullard
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Javon Bullard in slot 72. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick75
Rnd3
Mike Sainristil
They paid sticker price for Mike Sainristil in No. 75, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick86
Rnd3
Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter at pick No. 86 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The roster fit checks out.
Pick110
Rnd4
Malik Washington
They liked Malik Washington enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 4 slot. It fills a real need, too.
Pick111
Rnd4
Daijun Edwards
A wild overpay on Daijun Edwards in Round 4, Pick 11, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick117
Rnd4
Javon Foster
A reach for Javon Foster in No. 117; a little patience would have been rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick122
Rnd4
Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at the 122nd pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick165
Rnd5
Keith Randolph Jr.
A quiet steal in slot 165: Keith Randolph Jr. for less than the market said. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick235
Rnd7
Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson at the 235th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
