Ryan Poles Burner DRAFTING FOR THEBears

The Bears won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: A-. If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Bears, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. Very little went wrong, and the A- is earned.
Taylor III has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The Williams pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with running back, cornerback and other spots still on the board.
Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Bears paired the rookies with proven help, Dre'Mont Jones leading the way.
Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Malik Nabers and all.
Pick Analysis
Pick5
Rnd1
Malik Nabers
In No. 5 they get a difference-maker at receiver. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick15
Rnd1
Chop Robinson
In Round 1, Pick 15 they get juice off the edge at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36
Rnd2
Keon Coleman
They paid sticker price for Keon Coleman in pick No. 36, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick37
Rnd2
Leonard Taylor III
Leonard Taylor III in pick 37 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick69
Rnd3
Kamren Kinchens
Kamren Kinchens in the 69th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick81
Rnd3
Zak Zinter
They liked Zak Zinter enough to skip the value, taking him in the 81st pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick105
Rnd4
Seth McLaughlin
A premium they did not need to pay, Seth McLaughlin a notch or two before his time. The roster fit checks out.
Pick128
Rnd4
James Williams
They bypassed pressing needs at running back, cornerback and other spots to take James Williams, a safety that was not the priority.
