A costly weekend of dealing drags the Bears to a B-. The war room fell hard for Richard Jibunor, and it showed at Round 7, Pick 5: 117 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.
The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. On value alone, Egbuka makes the weekend a net positive. With running back, cornerback and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on DT-EDGE is the choice that costs them.
A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the running back spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a matchup problem out wide. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick24
Rnd1
Chop Robinson
Value with a capital V on Chop Robinson in pick No. 24, a genuine coup. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick53
Rnd2
Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka at the 53rd overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick68
Rnd3
Princely Umanmielen
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Princely Umanmielen. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick95
Rnd3
Maason Smith
Of all the spots to shop, they chose DT-EDGE. Maason Smith in slot 95 leaves running back, cornerback and other spots for later.
Pick104
Rnd4
Graham Barton
They paid sticker price for Graham Barton in Round 4, Pick 4, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick132
Rnd4
Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson in slot 132 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick141
Rnd5
Zach Frazier
Zach Frazier at No. 141 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick182
Rnd6
Gabe Hall
No drama and no debate, Gabe Hall went about where he belonged in pick No. 182. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick225
Rnd7
Richard Jibunor
Value said wait; Richard Jibunor in the Round 7 slot says they were not listening. The roster reasoning here is anyone's guess.
