FutureB-
The Bears turned the phones into found money: B. The Bears bet big and early on Gavin Sawchuk, 103 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. The bottom line is a respectable B.
The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.
They banked enough surplus on Singleton to cover a lot of smaller sins. They went 7 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick21
Rnd1
Nyck Harbor
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Nyck Harbor. The roster fit checks out.
Pick48
Rnd2
Nicholas Singleton
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Nicholas Singleton at No. 48 is the proof. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick59
Rnd2
Gabe Jacas
They talked themselves into Gabe Jacas at Round 2, Pick 27, and the board did not agree. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick80
Rnd3
Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles at pick 80 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick85
Rnd3
Michael Taaffe
They read the board right and Michael Taaffe was the payoff at the Round 3 slot. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick98
Rnd3
Raylen Wilson
A conviction pick on Raylen Wilson at the 98th pick that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick121
Rnd4
Iapani Laloulu
Iapani Laloulu at the Round 4 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. It fills a real need, too.
Pick127
Rnd4
Monroe Mills
They went early on Monroe Mills in pick No. 127, and the value did not follow. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick155
Rnd5
Barion Brown
They reached into another round for Barion Brown, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick164
Rnd5
Xavier Nwankpa
Xavier Nwankpa in Round 5, Pick 26 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick194
Rnd6
Micah Morris
Micah Morris at slot 194 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick229
Rnd7
Jehiem Oatis
Value said wait; Jehiem Oatis in No. 229 says they were not listening. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick233
Rnd7
King Mack
A wild overpay on King Mack in the 233rd overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick248
Rnd7
Gavin Sawchuk
They reached a country mile for Gavin Sawchuk at the 248th pick, and the board is aghast. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
