Grand theft in Round 7, Pick 24: the Bears steal Brown and grade out a B+. The Bears did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Logan Brown fell into the Round 7 slot.
The cost of the Verdon reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
They trusted the board more than the depth chart.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Ashton Jeanty
They read the board right and Ashton Jeanty was the payoff at Round 1, Pick 14. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick39
Rnd2
Tyler Warren
Somehow Tyler Warren was still sitting there in pick No. 39, and they pounced on premier tight end value. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick41
Rnd2
Demetrius Knight Jr.
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Demetrius Knight Jr.. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick54
Rnd2
Shemar Stewart
A top-tier edge rusher at a bargain, Shemar Stewart in the Round 2 slot, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick72
Rnd3
Darius Alexander
Value said wait; Darius Alexander in pick 72 says they were not listening. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick87
Rnd3
Darien Porter
Darien Porter slid further than he should have, and the 87th pick is lovely value for the cornerback. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick148
Rnd5
Ozzy Trapilo
They robbed the room for Ozzy Trapilo here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick232
Rnd7
Isaac TeSlaa
They paid sticker price for Isaac TeSlaa in the 232nd overall pick, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick233
Rnd7
Malik Verdon
They reached a country mile for Malik Verdon at pick No. 233, and the board is aghast. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick240
Rnd7
Logan Brown
They barely believed it either: Logan Brown still on the board at the 240th overall pick. It fills a real need, too.
