Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Bears were there to profit. Malaki Starks, the No. 19 name on the board, should have been long gone before the Round 3 slot. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B+.

Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Norman-Lott has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The Will Fries pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
