Bears 24 DRAFTING FOR THELions

The Lions robbed the room for McGlothern. Final grade: B. This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Dwight McGlothern, the No. 161 name on the board, stolen at No. 205.
They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They went 4 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick29
Rnd1
Terrion Arnold
In the Round 1 slot they get a ballhawk on the outside, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick61
Rnd2
Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske at No. 61 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick73
Rnd3
Ja'Lynn Polk
They paid sticker price for Ja'Lynn Polk in the 73rd pick, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick164
Rnd5
Sione Vaki
Good price on Sione Vaki in pick 164, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick201
Rnd6
Tanor Bortolini
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Tanor Bortolini at slot 201 is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick205
Rnd6
Dwight McGlothern
They barely believed it either: Dwight McGlothern still on the board at pick No. 205. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick249
Rnd7
Sheridan Jones
They robbed the room for Sheridan Jones here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
