After circling the position for what felt like forever, the Bears committed. Jayden Daniels is the quarterback now, and the roster gets built to his timeline. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

If Smith pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. Getting Melton where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. The Smith pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with interior defensive lineman and linebacker still on the board.

That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
