FutureA
The Bears did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B. You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Bears did exactly that with Evan Anderson in the 250th overall pick.
The Kinchens value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In No. 4 they get a difference-maker at receiver. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick15
Rnd1
Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In Round 1, Pick 15 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick27
Rnd1
Cooper DeJean
In slot 27 they get a lockdown presence outside at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35
Rnd2
Terrion Arnold
They let Terrion Arnold come to them and pounced at pick No. 35. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick39
Rnd2
J.J. McCarthy
No drama and no debate, J.J. McCarthy went about where he belonged in the 39th overall pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick47
Rnd2
Amarius Mims
You do not let an offensive lineman like Amarius Mims reach pick 47 and blink. They did not. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick56
Rnd2
Mike Sainristil
The board had cheaper options than Mike Sainristil at pick 56, and it noticed. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick72
Rnd3
Junior Colson
A linebacker of that caliber at Round 3, Pick 8 is the definition of value, full stop. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick82
Rnd3
Devontez Walker
They will replay Devontez Walker at the 82nd pick for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick112
Rnd4
Kamren Kinchens
The board fumbled Kamren Kinchens all the way to slot 112, and they scooped it up. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick114
Rnd4
Malik Washington
They read the board right and Malik Washington was the payoff at the Round 4 slot. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick116
Rnd4
Trey Benson
Circle this one: Trey Benson at the 116th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick128
Rnd4
Trevor Keegan
A wild overpay on Trevor Keegan in pick No. 128, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick150
Rnd5
Kalen King
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kalen King at No. 150. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick153
Rnd5
Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg at slot 153 is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick157
Rnd5
Jordan Travis
A market-rate quarterback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jordan Travis. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick173
Rnd5
Jaheim Bell
The board had Jaheim Bell higher than pick 173, and the tight end fell to them anyway. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick213
Rnd6
Cornelius Johnson
Cornelius Johnson at the 213th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick218
Rnd6
Michael Barrett
They paid sticker price for Michael Barrett in No. 218, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick228
Rnd7
Tyrice Knight
Value with a capital V on Tyrice Knight in pick No. 228, a genuine coup. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick250
Rnd7
Evan Anderson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Evan Anderson. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
