Larceny in the 25th overall pick lands the Bears a B, Reese and all. The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named edge rusher, a need the Bears walked right past. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.
Reese at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They will need Stribling to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.
Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Arvell Reese
Arvell Reese at slot 25 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The roster fit checks out.
Pick57
Rnd2
Caleb Banks
Caleb Banks in the 57th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick60
Rnd2
A.J. Haulcy
Value with a capital V on A.J. Haulcy in pick 60, a genuine coup. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick89
Rnd3
Logan Jones
They took Logan Jones at par in the Round 3 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick129
Rnd4
Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun at No. 129 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick239
Rnd7
De'Zhaun Stribling
De'Zhaun Stribling in pick No. 239 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick241
Rnd7
Charles Demmings
Charles Demmings in No. 241 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
