FutureA+
More right than wrong for the Bears, and a B to prove it. The Bears looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Jared Wiley at slot 150 regardless, 56 picks early. Good, not great, and the B says as much.
They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. It is not that Smith is a bad player; it is that the Bears had louder needs to answer first.
They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made. Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick9
Rnd1
Rome Odunze
In pick 9 they get a difference-maker at receiver. A real need, handled.
Pick17
Rnd1
Troy Fautanu
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick23
Rnd1
Jackson Powers-Johnson
In Round 1, Pick 23 they get a long-term starter on the line, though they paid up to get him. A real need, handled.
Pick27
Rnd1
Darius Robinson
In No. 27 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, reach and all. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick50
Rnd2
Ricky Pearsall
They paid sticker price for Ricky Pearsall in the 50th overall pick, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick76
Rnd3
Maason Smith
They bypassed pressing needs at interior defensive lineman and running back to take Maason Smith, a DT-EDGE that was not the priority.
Pick81
Rnd3
Zak Zinter
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Zak Zinter well ahead of where he belonged. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick118
Rnd4
Michael Pratt
A big swing on Michael Pratt at the 118th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick121
Rnd4
Jaylin Simpson
The board had cheaper options than Jaylin Simpson at pick No. 121, and it noticed. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick122
Rnd4
Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg at the 122nd pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick147
Rnd5
Isaiah Williams
This one needs a full-page explanation: Isaiah Williams in slot 147, miles early. The roster fit checks out.
Pick150
Rnd5
Jared Wiley
They reached a country mile for Jared Wiley at Round 5, Pick 14, and the board is aghast. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
