FutureC
A passer of the future in Williams, and a D-, for the Bears. Nobody had Maason Smith this high, and it is not close. The Bears reached 36 spots to get him at No. 75.
Caleb Williams is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.
In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
In pick 1 they get a franchise quarterback. A real need, handled.
Pick17
Rnd1
Jackson Powers-Johnson
In No. 17 they get protection for the quarterback, reach and all. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34
Rnd2
Jordan Morgan
No edge and no loss on Jordan Morgan in pick No. 34; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick68
Rnd3
Malik Washington
A wild overpay on Malik Washington in Round 3, Pick 4, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The roster fit checks out.
Pick75
Rnd3
Maason Smith
A real head-scratcher, Maason Smith in the 75th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
