FutureB-
A passer of the future in Williams, and a D-, for the Bears. The trade table was where it all came apart. The Bears shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill. A D- that will need time and luck to look better.
Everything downstream of Caleb Williams depends on Caleb Williams, and the building knows it. With edge rusher and linebacker unsolved, spending premium capital on OLB-EDGE is the choice that costs them.
Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Coleman falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.
Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and edge rusher is still a hole.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
In pick 1 they get the face of the franchise. A real need, handled.
Pick20
Rnd1
Brian Thomas Jr.
In the 20th pick they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick53
Rnd2
Braden Fiske
No drama and no debate, Braden Fiske went about where he belonged in pick No. 53. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick75
Rnd3
Keon Coleman
You do not let a wide receiver like Keon Coleman reach the 75th overall pick and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick114
Rnd4
Zak Zinter
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Zak Zinter at slot 114 is the proof. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick119
Rnd4
Javon Solomon
A curious use of Round 4, Pick 19. Edge rusher and linebacker needed the pick; an OLB-EDGE in Javon Solomon did not.
Pick160
Rnd5
Cody Schrader
Cody Schrader at the Round 5 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick171
Rnd5
Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden in No. 171 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
