FutureA+
Maye is the plan now, and the Bears grade out a D. Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Bears, and the value they bled adds up to real damage. Too much went sideways, and the D is the honest tally.
So much rides on Drake Maye that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. If Robinson pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.
Adding Gerald Everett by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, linebacker very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick5
Rnd1
Drake Maye
In the 5th pick they get their guy under center for the next decade. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick9
Rnd1
Rome Odunze
In No. 9 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick34
Rnd2
Bralen Trice
Bralen Trice in Round 2, Pick 2 is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick37
Rnd2
Kamren Kinchens
A straight-up fair deal on Kamren Kinchens at pick 37, value and slot in agreement. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick43
Rnd2
Jackson Powers-Johnson
They paid a round early for Jackson Powers-Johnson in the Round 2 slot, more than the board wanted. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick69
Rnd3
Ruke Orhorhoro
By-the-book stuff, Ruke Orhorhoro at the 69th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick75
Rnd3
Cooper Beebe
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cooper Beebe. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick103
Rnd4
Darius Robinson
They jumped the gun on Darius Robinson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick110
Rnd4
Jarrian Jones
They liked Jarrian Jones enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 110. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick122
Rnd4
Luke McCaffrey
A reach for Luke McCaffrey in the Round 4 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick145
Rnd5
Theo Johnson
They took Theo Johnson at par in Round 5, Pick 9, which is nothing to complain about. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick146
Rnd5
Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at the 146th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
