The Bears did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B. The Kenyatta Jackson Jr. selection is the head-turner. The Bears reached 31 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.
A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want. The Banks value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.
A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick Analysis
Pick42
Rnd2
Caleb Banks
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 42, where Caleb Banks graded well above the range. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick63
Rnd2
A'Mauri Washington
The board had cheaper options than A'Mauri Washington at Round 2, Pick 31, and it noticed. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick73
Rnd3
Zakee Wheatley
Zakee Wheatley in slot 73 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick95
Rnd3
Kenyatta Jackson Jr.
A wild overpay on Kenyatta Jackson Jr. in No. 95, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick129
Rnd4
Bryce Lance
A reasonable price with a little left over, Bryce Lance in the 129th pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick171
Rnd5
Davison Igbinosun
No edge and no loss on Davison Igbinosun in the 171st overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick200
Rnd6
Bud Clark
No drama and no debate, Bud Clark went about where he belonged in the Round 6 slot. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick237
Rnd7
Trey Zuhn III
By-the-book stuff, Trey Zuhn III at pick No. 237 squarely in line with his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick246
Rnd7
Brett Norfleet
A reach for Brett Norfleet in pick 246; a little patience would have been rewarded. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick257
Rnd7
J. Michael Sturdivant
J. Michael Sturdivant at the 257th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
