For all the boxes ticked, the Bears skipped the loudest one: edge rusher is exactly as bare as it was. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

On the needs board they went 1 of 8, with running back the one that mattered most. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

Their trades came out a wash either way.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.
