Williams is the plan now, and the Bears grade out a D-. The phones were a trap the Bears kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal. Hard to defend, and the D- reflects that.
The whole projection now runs through Caleb Williams; hit there and everything else looks smarter. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
The Smith pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots. Barner has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.
That McGlothern pick is the receipt they will wave around later.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, edge rusher very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
In pick 1 they get the face of the franchise at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick9
Rnd1
Rome Odunze
In No. 9 they get a home-run threat at receiver. A real need, handled.
Pick43
Rnd2
Tyler Nubin
Good price on Tyler Nubin in the 43rd overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick74
Rnd3
Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy at the 74th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick75
Rnd3
Blake Corum
They jumped the gun on Blake Corum, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick110
Rnd4
Maason Smith
A want over a need in Round 4, Pick 10: Maason Smith adds a DT-EDGE while edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick111
Rnd4
Zak Zinter
They did well to land Zak Zinter in slot 111, just ahead of his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick123
Rnd4
Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson at pick No. 123 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick142
Rnd5
AJ Barner
A swing that ignored the value entirely, AJ Barner well ahead of where he belonged. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick143
Rnd5
Trevor Keegan
This one needs a full-page explanation: Trevor Keegan in the 143rd overall pick, miles early. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick199
Rnd6
Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern in the 199th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
