The Bears did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-. The Bears clearly saw something nobody else did in Bryce Lance, taking him 25 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. That is a linebacker worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick29
Rnd1
Arvell Reese
A slide stopped in No. 29, with Arvell Reese worth more than the price. The roster fit checks out.
Pick61
Rnd2
A'Mauri Washington
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on A'Mauri Washington. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick93
Rnd3
Bryce Lance
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Bryce Lance. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick128
Rnd4
Bray Hubbard
By-the-book stuff, Bray Hubbard at pick No. 128 squarely in line with his ranking. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick168
Rnd5
Oscar Delp
Oscar Delp at pick 168 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick238
Rnd7
PJ Williams
PJ Williams in the Round 7 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick245
Rnd7
Tony Grimes
A real head-scratcher, Tony Grimes in pick 245 is miles ahead of his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
