FutureA
The Bears bet the future on Williams. The board says A-. The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Bears spent their marquee pick on Caleb Williams, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback.
Sainristil at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.
They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.
In the end it comes back to Caleb Williams, and a haul good enough to build on right away.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
In pick 1 they get the arm they will build around. A real need, handled.
Pick27
Rnd1
Brian Thomas Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick71
Rnd3
Bralen Trice
Bralen Trice slid further than he should have, and the 71st overall pick is lovely value for the edge rusher. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick72
Rnd3
Payton Wilson
They read the board right and Payton Wilson was the payoff at No. 72. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick75
Rnd3
Sedrick Van Pran
Fair-plus on Sedrick Van Pran, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick76
Rnd3
Cade Stover
By-the-book stuff, Cade Stover at pick No. 76 squarely in line with his ranking. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick111
Rnd4
Mike Sainristil
Taking Mike Sainristil in slot 111 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick116
Rnd4
Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice at the 116th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick120
Rnd4
Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
The board had Jarvis Brownlee Jr. higher than the 120th pick, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick121
Rnd4
Mohamed Kamara
They went early on Mohamed Kamara in pick No. 121, and the value did not follow. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick210
Rnd6
Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III in pick 210 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A need, and now a little less of one.
