Overall

FutureD
The Bears turned the phones into found money: B-. The trade table was a mismatch, and the Bears were on the right end of it, hauling in a fortune in surplus value. The bottom line is a respectable B-.
If Abney II pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Reed-Adams pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.
Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick56
Rnd2
A.J. Haulcy
A real head-scratcher, A.J. Haulcy in Round 2, Pick 24 is miles ahead of his ranking. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick59
Rnd2
Keith Abney II
They left a pile of value on the table to take Keith Abney II this early at the 59th pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick87
Rnd3
Eric Singleton Jr.
They let Eric Singleton Jr. come to them and pounced at pick 87. The roster fit checks out.
Pick131
Rnd4
Bryce Lance
Good price on Bryce Lance in the 131st overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick163
Rnd5
Ar'maj Reed-Adams
Ar'maj Reed-Adams slid further than he should have, and slot 163 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick236
Rnd7
Pat Coogan
Pat Coogan in the Round 7 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick238
Rnd7
Bear Alexander
Bear Alexander in No. 238 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
