The steal of the weekend belongs to the Bears and Newton: A-. The Bears did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Josh Newton fell into No. 123. Little to argue with here, and the A- says so.
The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
Every board in the league had Thomas lower, and that gap is the story.
Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Marvin Harrison Jr. and all.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the 3rd pick they get a true top target at fair value.
Pick9
Rnd1
Joe Alt
In the Round 1 slot they get protection for the quarterback. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34
Rnd2
Calen Bullock
Calen Bullock in Round 2, Pick 2 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick46
Rnd2
Terrion Arnold
Terrion Arnold in the 46th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick75
Rnd3
Jonathon Brooks
A slide stopped in pick No. 75, with Jonathon Brooks worth more than the price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick82
Rnd3
Sedrick Van Pran
The board had cheaper options than Sedrick Van Pran at No. 82, and it noticed. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick104
Rnd4
Johnny Wilson
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Johnny Wilson in slot 104, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick111
Rnd4
Spencer Rattler
Spencer Rattler at pick 111 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick115
Rnd4
Tommy Eichenberg
A premium they did not need to pay, Tommy Eichenberg a notch or two before his time. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick123
Rnd4
Josh Newton
The board fumbled Josh Newton all the way to slot 123, and they scooped it up. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick141
Rnd5
Sataoa Laumea
They barely believed it either: Sataoa Laumea still on the board at Round 5, Pick 5. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick143
Rnd5
James Williams
Nice patience on James Williams, who had no business lasting to pick 143. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick152
Rnd5
Layden Robinson
They went early on Layden Robinson in No. 152, and the value did not follow. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick232
Rnd7
Steele Chambers
Steele Chambers at the 232nd overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick234
Rnd7
Xavier Thomas
Xavier Thomas at the Round 7 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
