Jones should have been long gone. The Bears pounced, and earned a B. Thirty-one other rooms let Christian Jones slide, and the Bears were the ones holding the card at pick 168. Highway robbery.
Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. They are betting Rice proves the room right and everyone else wrong. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick23
Rnd1
Jared Verse
In the 23rd pick they get a disruptor off the edge at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33
Rnd2
Bo Nix
Nothing to complain about; Bo Nix went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick39
Rnd2
Keon Coleman
A straight-up fair deal on Keon Coleman at No. 39, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick65
Rnd3
Calen Bullock
They left a pile of value on the table to take Calen Bullock this early at pick 65. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick75
Rnd3
Brenden Rice
A big swing on Brenden Rice at slot 75, well ahead of any board in the building. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick122
Rnd4
Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson at Round 4, Pick 22 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick128
Rnd4
Justin Eboigbe
They reached a country mile for Justin Eboigbe at the 128th overall pick, and the board is aghast. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick134
Rnd4
Ainias Smith
Ainias Smith at pick No. 134 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick150
Rnd5
Javion Cohen
This one needs a full-page explanation: Javion Cohen in slot 150, miles early. The roster fit checks out.
Pick168
Rnd5
Christian Jones
Christian Jones in pick 168 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It fills a real need, too.
Pick185
Rnd6
Hunter Nourzad
Somehow Hunter Nourzad was still sitting there in the Round 6 slot, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
