The Bears drew a line under the quarterback search with Williams: A-. They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Caleb Williams is the Bears' quarterback, full stop. The sum of the weekend is a deserved A-.
They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. The McCaffrey pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.
Holker has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. Josh Uche gives the group a proven body among the projects.
Bottom line, with Caleb Williams leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Malik Nabers
In the Round 1 slot they get a go-to option on the outside. A real need, handled.
Pick4
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
In the 4th pick they get a long-term answer under center at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick10
Rnd1
Jared Verse
In No. 10 they get a double-digit-sack hope. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick27
Rnd1
Byron Murphy II
In pick No. 27 they get a disruptive interior force. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick34
Rnd2
Troy Fautanu
A quiet steal in the 34th overall pick: Troy Fautanu for less than the market said. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick35
Rnd2
Ja'Tavion Sanders
They took Ja'Tavion Sanders at par in Round 2, Pick 3, which is nothing to complain about. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick43
Rnd2
Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at slot 43 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick66
Rnd3
Ricky Pearsall
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Ricky Pearsall in pick 66. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick71
Rnd3
Bralen Trice
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Bralen Trice. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick72
Rnd3
Jaden Hicks
A straight-up fair deal on Jaden Hicks at No. 72, value and slot in agreement. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick75
Rnd3
Sedrick Van Pran
They paid sticker price for Sedrick Van Pran in the 75th pick, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick104
Rnd4
Cam Hart
Cam Hart slid further than he should have, and pick 104 is lovely value for the cornerback. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick111
Rnd4
Isaac Guerendo
No edge and no loss on Isaac Guerendo in the Round 4 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick112
Rnd4
Sataoa Laumea
Sataoa Laumea in Round 4, Pick 12 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick123
Rnd4
James Williams
Fair-plus on James Williams, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick137
Rnd5
Chau Smith-Wade
Chau Smith-Wade in the 137th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick143
Rnd5
Dallin Holker
Dallin Holker at the 143rd overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick187
Rnd6
Luke McCaffrey
The board fumbled Luke McCaffrey all the way to pick 187, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
