A franchise passer in Williams headlines a B- 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.
That is an offensive lineman worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
In Round 1, Pick 1 they get their guy under center for the next decade at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick9
Rnd1
Joe Alt
In slot 9 they get protection for the quarterback. A real need, handled.
Pick75
Rnd3
Roman Wilson
They will replay Roman Wilson at the 75th pick for years; that is how good the value is. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick122
Rnd4
Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul at pick No. 122 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
