Daniels is the plan now, and the Bears grade out a A-. The search is over. The Bears handed the keys to Jayden Daniels, and the whole operation now runs on his development. Just about everything broke right, and the A- follows.
The phones were where this weekend was really won. Getting Jones where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.
The Knox pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.
It is a haul that will look even better come September.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Jayden Daniels
In the 4th overall pick they get their quarterback of the future at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick13
Rnd1
Dallas Turner
In Round 1, Pick 13 they get a double-digit-sack hope. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick35
Rnd2
Bralen Trice
Bralen Trice at pick No. 35 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick36
Rnd2
Xavier Legette
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Xavier Legette. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick40
Rnd2
Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy in slot 40 is fair value, right on his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick44
Rnd2
Ja'Tavion Sanders
Ja'Tavion Sanders at No. 44 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick52
Rnd2
Jonathon Brooks
A premium they did not need to pay, Jonathon Brooks a notch or two before his time. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick67
Rnd3
Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in the Round 3 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick75
Rnd3
Christian Haynes
They took Christian Haynes at par in No. 75, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick77
Rnd3
Michael Hall Jr.
A reach on Michael Hall Jr. in the 77th pick; the board had better options right there. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick78
Rnd3
Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice is a better player than slot 78 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick84
Rnd3
Spencer Rattler
No edge and no loss on Spencer Rattler in Round 3, Pick 20; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick92
Rnd3
Khyree Jackson
They went early on Khyree Jackson in the Round 3 slot, and the value did not follow. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick111
Rnd4
Beau Brade
By-the-book stuff, Beau Brade at pick 111 squarely in line with his ranking. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick119
Rnd4
Cedric Gray
They paid up for Cedric Gray at the 119th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick120
Rnd4
Malik Washington
Malik Washington at pick No. 120 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick123
Rnd4
Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones in slot 123 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick143
Rnd5
Cole Bishop
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Cole Bishop at Round 5, Pick 7 is the proof. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick163
Rnd5
Trey Knox
Trey Knox at the 163rd pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick194
Rnd6
Jaylen Harrell
A reach for Jaylen Harrell in pick 194; a little patience would have been rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick207
Rnd6
Christian Jones
A tidy little value on Christian Jones in pick No. 207, a step better than break-even. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick247
Rnd7
Sheridan Jones
Taking Sheridan Jones in the 247th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
