vc123 DRAFTING FOR THEBears
Draft Grade — Bears
Overall
B-
ValueB-
NeedB+
TradesB-
FutureB-
A passer of the future in Williams, and a B-, for the Bears. They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Caleb Williams is the Bears' quarterback, full stop. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.
They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They will need Cowing to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.
They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.
Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
In the 1st overall pick they get a passer to set the clock by at fair value.
Pick9
Rnd1
Dallas Turner
In the 9th pick they get a disruptor off the edge. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick75
Rnd3
Mike Sainristil
They took Mike Sainristil at par in No. 75, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick122
Rnd4
Jacob Cowing
A real head-scratcher, Jacob Cowing in Round 4, Pick 22 is miles ahead of his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
