FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Bears: B-. The Bears clearly saw something nobody else did in Jordan Hall, taking him 92 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced.
The Smith pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with running back, cornerback and other spots still on the board. The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
The Josh Sweat pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns. If one pick saves this weekend, it is McNeil-Warren.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Akheem Mesidor
In slot 25 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, reach and all. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick60
Rnd2
Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Emmanuel McNeil-Warren at Round 2, Pick 28. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick89
Rnd3
Genesis Smith
A surprising call. With running back, cornerback and other spots still to address, they spent the 89th overall pick on Genesis Smith, a safety they were not short of.
Pick129
Rnd4
Harold Perkins Jr.
A clean, defensible pick in the 129th pick with a little surplus value in Harold Perkins Jr.. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick239
Rnd7
Bryce Foster
They paid a round early for Bryce Foster in the Round 7 slot, more than the board wanted. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick241
Rnd7
Jordan Hall
A wild overpay on Jordan Hall in pick 241, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
