The Bears spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Germie Bernard, the No. 58 name on the board, in the 89th overall pick. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B+.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the cornerback spot they never got to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.29 · Pick 29 · Zion Young · DE-EDGE · rank 42
In the Round 1 slot they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, even if it was a touch early. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Emmanuel McNeil-Warren · S · rank 51
A tidy little value on Emmanuel McNeil-Warren in pick No. 57, a step better than break-even. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R2.28 · Pick 60 · Anthony Hill Jr. · LB · rank 38
They will replay Anthony Hill Jr. at pick 60 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R3.10 · Pick 74 · Mike Washington Jr. · RB · rank 75
No edge and no loss on Mike Washington Jr. in the 74th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R3.25 · Pick 89 · Germie Bernard · WR · rank 58
Germie Bernard at Round 3, Pick 25 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It fills a real need, too.
R4.29 · Pick 129 · DeMonte Capehart · DT · rank 138
The board had cheaper options than DeMonte Capehart at slot 129, and it noticed. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
