zimmer DRAFTING FOR THEBears
Draft Grade — Bears
Overall

FutureB-
The Bears kept it disciplined and banked a B-. It is the swing that defines the weekend: Grey Zabel in the Round 1 slot, a good 23 spots before the room expected him.
The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They left with interior defensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick10
Rnd1
Grey Zabel
In the 10th pick they get a blindside protector, though the board says they badly overpaid. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick39
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in pick No. 39 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick41
Rnd2
T.J. Sanders
No drama and no debate, T.J. Sanders went about where he belonged in the 41st overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick72
Rnd3
Isaiah Bond
No edge and no loss on Isaiah Bond in Round 3, Pick 8; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
