The Bears worked the phones like thieves and earned a A-. Some picks age like wine; Darius Robinson at pick No. 89 will need to, sitting 38 spots clear of his grade. The sum of the weekend is a deserved A-.
They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. However the rest shakes out, Vidal at that price is a win they earned. Spending an early pick on safety with interior defensive lineman open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman.
Bottom line, with Marvin Harrison Jr. leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.
Pick Analysis
Pick2
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
Marvin Harrison Jr. in slot 2 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick15
Rnd1
JC Latham
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick18
Rnd1
Xavier Legette
In pick 18 they get a home-run threat at receiver, reach and all. A real need, handled.
Pick26
Rnd1
Kamren Kinchens
In No. 26 they get a centerfielder for the defense. More want than need.
Pick35
Rnd2
Graham Barton
By-the-book stuff, Graham Barton at pick No. 35 squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick36
Rnd2
Troy Fautanu
Nothing to complain about; Troy Fautanu went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick37
Rnd2
Kamari Lassiter
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kamari Lassiter in the 37th pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick39
Rnd2
Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson in pick 39 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick45
Rnd2
Trey Benson
Trey Benson at slot 45 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick47
Rnd2
Bo Nix
Bo Nix in the Round 2 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick75
Rnd3
Rod Moore
A curious use of No. 75. Interior defensive lineman needed the pick; a safety in Rod Moore did not.
Pick89
Rnd3
Darius Robinson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Darius Robinson in Round 3, Pick 26, miles early. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick100
Rnd3
Audric Estime
A straight-up fair deal on Audric Estime at pick No. 100, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick110
Rnd4
Cedric Gray
They left a pile of value on the table to take Cedric Gray this early at the 110th overall pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick127
Rnd4
Ben Sinnott
They went early on Ben Sinnott in pick 127, and the value did not follow. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick145
Rnd5
Ainias Smith
Ainias Smith at the 145th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick152
Rnd5
Sataoa Laumea
Sataoa Laumea at the Round 5 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The roster fit checks out.
Pick168
Rnd5
Jasheen Davis
No edge and no loss on Jasheen Davis in No. 168; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick186
Rnd6
LaDarius Henderson
They read the board right and LaDarius Henderson was the payoff at Round 6, Pick 11. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick231
Rnd7
Kimani Vidal
They robbed the room for Kimani Vidal here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick232
Rnd7
Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan in the 232nd overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick238
Rnd7
Matthew Jones
A wild overpay on Matthew Jones in pick No. 238, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
