FutureA+
A franchise passer in Williams headlines a A- weekend for the Bears. After circling the position for what felt like forever, the Bears committed. Caleb Williams is the quarterback now, and the roster gets built to his timeline. Very little went wrong, and the A- is earned.
The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. The cost of the Smith reach is exactly the players who went right after him. That Rice pick is the receipt they will wave around later.
They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
In the end it comes back to Caleb Williams, and a haul good enough to build on right away.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
In the 3rd overall pick they get their quarterback of the future. A real need, handled.
Pick31
Rnd1
Amarius Mims
In the Round 1 slot they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34
Rnd2
Brian Thomas Jr.
A reasonable price with a little left over, Brian Thomas Jr. in the 34th pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick63
Rnd2
Payton Wilson
Fair-plus on Payton Wilson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It fills a real need, too.
Pick75
Rnd3
Maason Smith
This one needs a full-page explanation: Maason Smith in pick 75, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick103
Rnd4
Calen Bullock
Calen Bullock in Round 4, Pick 3 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick116
Rnd4
Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at slot 116 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick122
Rnd4
Brenden Rice
They robbed the room for Brenden Rice here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
