DA BEARS DRAFTING FOR THEBears

The Bears land in the muddy middle: C. The war room fell hard for Eric O'Neill, and it showed at Round 3, Pick 23: 112 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. A weekend of give and take that grades a C.
For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
In the end, a coin-flip class: fine today, with a wide range of outcomes ahead.
Pick Analysis
Pick23
Rnd1
Trevor Goosby
In slot 23 they get protection for the quarterback, a steep price for the projection. A real need, handled.
Pick56
Rnd2
Kenyatta Jackson Jr.
A real head-scratcher, Kenyatta Jackson Jr. in pick 56 is miles ahead of his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick87
Rnd3
Eric O'Neill
Eric O'Neill at the Round 3 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick131
Rnd4
Charles Jagusah
No edge and no loss on Charles Jagusah in pick No. 131; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick163
Rnd5
DJ Campbell
This one needs a full-page explanation: DJ Campbell in No. 163, miles early. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick236
Rnd7
Barion Brown
Barion Brown in Round 7, Pick 21 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick238
Rnd7
Elliot Washington II
They reached a country mile for Elliot Washington II at the 238th overall pick, and the board is aghast. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
