FutureA+
Grand theft in the Round 6 slot: the Bears steal James and grade out a A-. This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Jordan James, the No. 72 name on the board, stolen at the 197th pick. This is how you run a draft, and the A- reflects it.
They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.
Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Tyler Booker and all.
Pick Analysis
Pick32
Rnd1
Tyler Booker
In slot 32 they get an anchor for the offensive line. A real need, handled.
Pick39
Rnd2
Tate Ratledge
They jumped the gun on Tate Ratledge, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick44
Rnd2
JT Tuimoloau
They went early on JT Tuimoloau in the Round 2 slot, and the value did not follow. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick72
Rnd3
Deone Walker
Deone Walker in pick 72 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick89
Rnd3
Aeneas Peebles
Aeneas Peebles slid further than he should have, and pick No. 89 is lovely value for the interior defensive lineman. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick126
Rnd4
Jake Majors
Jake Majors at No. 126 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick147
Rnd5
Quinshon Judkins
They robbed the room for Quinshon Judkins here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick193
Rnd6
Luke Lachey
A quiet steal in the 193rd pick: Luke Lachey for less than the market said. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick197
Rnd6
Jordan James
Steal is underselling it; Jordan James at slot 197 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick233
Rnd7
Seth McLaughlin
They will replay Seth McLaughlin at No. 233 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick240
Rnd7
Trevor Etienne
Trevor Etienne in the 240th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
