The Bears bled value on every deal, hence the C. Somebody took the Bears to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C.
That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. If Ott pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.
Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.
Pick Analysis
Pick16
Rnd1
Rueben Bain Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a disruptor off the edge. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick48
Rnd2
Michael Taaffe
Michael Taaffe in Round 2, Pick 16 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick83
Rnd3
Aaron Graves
No drama and no debate, Aaron Graves went about where he belonged in slot 83. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick93
Rnd3
Jaydn Ott
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jaydn Ott this early at pick No. 93. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
