The steal of the weekend belongs to the Bears and Fairchild: B+. Call it larceny. Dylan Fairchild sat on the board until the 246th pick, and the Bears did not need to be asked twice.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped cornerback, which is a strange place to end up. Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work.
Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick29
Rnd1
Walter Nolen
In the 29th overall pick they get a load in the middle, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36
Rnd2
Princely Umanmielen
Steal is underselling it; Princely Umanmielen at pick 36 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick52
Rnd2
Wyatt Milum
Wyatt Milum at slot 52 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick60
Rnd2
T.J. Sanders
T.J. Sanders at the Round 2 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick73
Rnd3
Armand Membou
A reasonable price with a little left over, Armand Membou in the 73rd pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick109
Rnd4
Ashton Jeanty
You do not let a running back like Ashton Jeanty reach pick No. 109 and blink. They did not. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick110
Rnd4
Jake Majors
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jake Majors at No. 110 is the proof. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick147
Rnd5
Nick Emmanwori
Circle this one: Nick Emmanwori at Round 5, Pick 9 is a fall that decides a draft. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick166
Rnd5
Tre Harris
Somehow Tre Harris was still sitting there in slot 166, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick228
Rnd7
Lathan Ransom
A safety of that caliber at Round 7, Pick 14 is the definition of value, full stop. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick244
Rnd7
Kalel Mullings
Kalel Mullings in the 244th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick246
Rnd7
Dylan Fairchild
Taking Dylan Fairchild in pick No. 246 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
