Grand theft in the 138th overall pick: the Bears steal Henderson and grade out a A-. The board owed the Bears one, and it paid up: TreVeyon Henderson, the No. 61 name on the board, sitting there at slot 138 like a gift left on the doorstep. A near-flawless weekend of work, and a A- to cap it.
They will need Cypress II to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. The Bears indulged a want in Mukuba while a need in edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots stayed open.
Bottom line, they left the weekend a clearly better team, and they earned every bit of it.
Pick Analysis
Pick28
Rnd1
Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in the Round 1 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick49
Rnd2
Tate Ratledge
They robbed the room for Tate Ratledge here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick51
Rnd2
Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts at pick No. 51 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick72
Rnd3
Jake Majors
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jake Majors in slot 72, miles early. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick82
Rnd3
Andrew Mukuba
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Andrew Mukuba at safety with edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots open.
Pick97
Rnd3
Deontae Lawson
Deontae Lawson in Round 3, Pick 33 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick138
Rnd5
TreVeyon Henderson
Taking TreVeyon Henderson in the 138th pick is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick147
Rnd5
Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor at No. 147 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick163
Rnd5
Joshua Gray
Joshua Gray at No. 163 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick192
Rnd6
Seth McLaughlin
A conviction pick on Seth McLaughlin at pick No. 192 that the board grades a round light. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick197
Rnd6
Will Lee III
A big swing on Will Lee III at Round 6, Pick 22, well ahead of any board in the building. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick233
Rnd7
Fentrell Cypress II
Fentrell Cypress II in pick 233 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
