The steal of the weekend belongs to the Bears and Cowing: B-.

The Bears spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Jacob Cowing, the No. 192 name on the board, in pick No. 225.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. Every board in the league had Bell lower, and that gap is the story.

Interior defensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick4 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
No drama and no debate, Olumuyiwa Fashanu went about where he belonged in No. 4. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick68 Rnd3 Mekhi Wingo
A reasonable price with a little left over, Mekhi Wingo in pick No. 68. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick104 Rnd4 Jaheim Bell
They talked themselves into Jaheim Bell at the 104th overall pick, and the board did not agree. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick132 Rnd4 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
Jamon Dumas-Johnson at Round 4, Pick 32 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick141 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
The board had Nehemiah Pritchett higher than slot 141, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick182 Rnd6 Jestin Jacobs
Jestin Jacobs at pick 182 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick225 Rnd7 Jacob Cowing
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Jacob Cowing in the 225th pick, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
