FutureC
The Bears fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B. The Bears treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending Round 7, Pick 21 on Hayden Hatten a full 72 spots early. More right than wrong, and a B to match.
They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
The Brade pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at interior defensive lineman, running back and other spots.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick9
Rnd1
Jared Verse
In pick No. 9 they get a double-digit-sack hope. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick36
Rnd2
Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan at No. 36 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It fills a real need, too.
Pick67
Rnd3
Javon Bullard
Javon Bullard at slot 67 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick75
Rnd3
Brenden Rice
Good price on Brenden Rice in pick 75, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick100
Rnd3
Khyree Jackson
A straight-up fair deal on Khyree Jackson at the 100th pick, value and slot in agreement. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick102
Rnd4
Drake Nugent
Drake Nugent in the 102nd overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick110
Rnd4
Ben Sinnott
This one needs a full-page explanation: Ben Sinnott in No. 110, miles early. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick119
Rnd4
Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at the 119th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick120
Rnd4
Beau Brade
A surprising call. With interior defensive lineman, running back and other spots still to address, they spent the Round 4 slot on Beau Brade, a safety they were not short of.
Pick122
Rnd4
Delmar Glaze
A big swing on Delmar Glaze at pick 122, well ahead of any board in the building. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick154
Rnd5
Roger Rosengarten
Value said wait; Roger Rosengarten in slot 154 says they were not listening. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick198
Rnd6
Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan in the 198th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick236
Rnd7
McKade Mettauer
They reached a country mile for McKade Mettauer at pick No. 236, and the board is aghast. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick241
Rnd7
Hayden Hatten
Hayden Hatten at Round 7, Pick 21 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
