The Bears drew a line under the quarterback search with Daniels: D+. Nobody else had AJ Barner anywhere near pick 146. The Bears did, by 47 spots, and that gap is the whole story.
They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. Jayden Daniels gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. On value alone, Tampa makes the weekend a net positive.
In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.
Pick Analysis
Pick5
Rnd1
Jayden Daniels
In pick No. 5 they get the arm they will build around at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick9
Rnd1
Malik Nabers
In the 9th overall pick they get a matchup problem out wide. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick37
Rnd2
Brian Thomas Jr.
They read the board right and Brian Thomas Jr. was the payoff at No. 37. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick43
Rnd2
Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton at the Round 2 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. The roster fit checks out.
Pick74
Rnd3
Blake Corum
Blake Corum at pick 74 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick75
Rnd3
T.J. Tampa
They barely believed it either: T.J. Tampa still on the board at Round 3, Pick 11. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick121
Rnd4
Blake Fisher
A offensive lineman of that caliber at slot 121 is the definition of value, full stop. It fills a real need, too.
Pick122
Rnd4
Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at Round 4, Pick 22 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick146
Rnd5
AJ Barner
AJ Barner in the 146th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick149
Rnd5
Javon Foster
Somehow Javon Foster was still sitting there in pick No. 149, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick181
Rnd6
Michael Barrett
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Michael Barrett. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
