FutureA+
The Bears turned the phones into found money: B+. The Bears put a flag in the ground for Julian Fleming, 142 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.
Whatever else happened, they won the night they took James. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick Analysis
Pick102
Rnd4
Haynes King
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Haynes King. It fills a real need, too.
Pick103
Rnd4
Deone Walker
A big swing on Deone Walker at the 103rd pick, well ahead of any board in the building. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick104
Rnd4
Bear Alexander
Bear Alexander in No. 104 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick105
Rnd4
Mykel Williams
A wild overpay on Mykel Williams in pick No. 105, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick106
Rnd4
Cashius Howell
Cashius Howell at the Round 4 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick107
Rnd4
Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. at slot 107 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick108
Rnd4
Jihaad Campbell
They reached into another round for Jihaad Campbell, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick109
Rnd4
Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks in the Round 4 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick110
Rnd4
Sonny Styles
Taking Sonny Styles in the 110th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick111
Rnd4
Benjamin Morrison
Benjamin Morrison at the 111th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick112
Rnd4
Jordan Hancock
Value said wait; Jordan Hancock in pick 112 says they were not listening. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick113
Rnd4
Evan Stewart
Nice patience on Evan Stewart, who had no business lasting to No. 113. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick114
Rnd4
J.Michael Sturdivant
A real head-scratcher, J.Michael Sturdivant in pick No. 114 is miles ahead of his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick115
Rnd4
Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren in slot 115 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick116
Rnd4
Colston Loveland
Somehow Colston Loveland was still sitting there in pick 116, and they pounced on premier tight end value. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick117
Rnd4
Tyler Booker
You do not let an offensive lineman like Tyler Booker reach Round 4, Pick 16 and blink. They did not. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick118
Rnd4
Emery Jones Jr.
This one needs a full-page explanation: Emery Jones Jr. in the 118th pick, miles early. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick119
Rnd4
Blake Miller
They left a pile of value on the table to take Blake Miller this early at pick No. 119. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick120
Rnd4
Dylan Fairchild
Dylan Fairchild at the 120th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick121
Rnd4
Trey Zuhn III
A conviction pick on Trey Zuhn III at the Round 4 slot that the board grades a round light. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick122
Rnd4
Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson in No. 122 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick123
Rnd4
Miles Frazier
They reached a country mile for Miles Frazier at slot 123, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick124
Rnd4
Bryce Foster
Bryce Foster at pick No. 124 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick125
Rnd4
Jordan James
They will replay Jordan James at slot 125 for years; that is how good the value is. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick126
Rnd4
Nicholas Singleton
They robbed the room for Nicholas Singleton here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick127
Rnd4
Kamari Ramsey
They barely believed it either: Kamari Ramsey still on the board at the Round 4 slot. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick128
Rnd4
Jay Higgins
The board fumbled Jay Higgins all the way to the 128th overall pick, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick129
Rnd4
Clay Webb
Clay Webb at pick 129 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick130
Rnd4
Danny Stutsman
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Danny Stutsman in Round 4, Pick 29, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick131
Rnd4
Le'Veon Moss
The board had cheaper options than Le'Veon Moss at the 131st pick, and it noticed. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick132
Rnd4
Julian Fleming
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Julian Fleming well ahead of where he belonged. The roster fit checks out.
Pick133
Rnd4
Gunnar Helm
Gunnar Helm at Round 4, Pick 32 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick134
Rnd4
Jaishawn Barham
They talked themselves into Jaishawn Barham at the Round 4 slot, and the board did not agree. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick135
Rnd4
Kalel Mullings
Kalel Mullings in No. 135 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick136
Rnd4
Riley Leonard
They paid up for Riley Leonard at pick 136 when waiting would have done the job. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick137
Rnd4
Rylie Mills
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Rylie Mills at the 137th pick is the proof. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
