FutureB
The Bears checked most of the boxes and earned a B-. Nobody else had Desmond Watson anywhere near pick No. 204. The Bears did, by 26 spots, and that gap is the whole story. The bottom line is a respectable B-.
The Emmanwori pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick17
Rnd1
Tyler Warren
No edge and no loss on Tyler Warren in the 17th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick39
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
The board fumbled Nick Emmanwori all the way to the Round 2 slot, and they scooped it up. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick44
Rnd2
TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson in pick 44 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick72
Rnd3
Tate Ratledge
By-the-book stuff, Tate Ratledge at Round 3, Pick 8 squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick76
Rnd3
Ashton Gillotte
Ashton Gillotte at pick No. 76 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick117
Rnd4
Hollin Pierce
They talked themselves into Hollin Pierce at slot 117, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick148
Rnd5
Ty Robinson
A premium they did not need to pay, Ty Robinson a notch or two before his time. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick149
Rnd5
Logan Brown
Fair-plus on Logan Brown, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick168
Rnd5
Jack Kiser
They jumped the gun on Jack Kiser, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick204
Rnd6
Desmond Watson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Desmond Watson in No. 204, miles early. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick232
Rnd7
Isaac TeSlaa
They took Isaac TeSlaa at par in the Round 7 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
