FutureA
The Bears bet the future on Williams. The board says A-. Start where it matters. The Bears took Caleb Williams to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one. They executed a plan and it shows in the A-.
They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.
In short, they turned a good board into a better roster, and it shows.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
In pick No. 1 they get a long-term answer under center. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33
Rnd2
Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson at pick 33 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick65
Rnd3
Bralen Trice
No edge and no loss on Bralen Trice in the Round 3 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick75
Rnd3
Mike Sainristil
No drama and no debate, Mike Sainristil went about where he belonged in the 75th overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
