Best value of the weekend goes to the Bears for Monangai: B. The Bears did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Kyle Monangai fell into No. 240. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. The roster is better shaped than it was, with interior defensive lineman chief among the fixes.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick10
Rnd1
Armand Membou
In Round 1, Pick 10 they get a building block for the line at fair value.
Pick39
Rnd2
Kenneth Grant
Nice patience on Kenneth Grant, who had no business lasting to pick No. 39. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick41
Rnd2
Malaki Starks
The board had Malaki Starks higher than the Round 2 slot, and the safety fell to them anyway. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick72
Rnd3
Quinshon Judkins
A reasonable price with a little left over, Quinshon Judkins in No. 72. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick148
Rnd5
Pat Bryant
No drama and no debate, Pat Bryant went about where he belonged in pick 148. The roster fit checks out.
Pick233
Rnd7
Isaac TeSlaa
They took Isaac TeSlaa at par in the 233rd overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick240
Rnd7
Kyle Monangai
Taking Kyle Monangai in the 240th pick is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
