The Bears left with their quarterback, and a A- to match. The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Bears spent their marquee pick on Drake Maye, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback.
The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. They will need Mukuba to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. Spending an early pick on defensive back with running back and linebacker open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.
The running back spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
In short, they turned a good board into a better roster, and it shows.
Pick Analysis
Pick5
Rnd1
Drake Maye
In Round 1, Pick 5 they get a long-term answer under center. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick23
Rnd1
JC Latham
In slot 23 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick35
Rnd2
Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman at the Round 2 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick54
Rnd2
Rod Moore
A surprising call. With running back and linebacker still to address, they spent pick No. 54 on Rod Moore, a defensive back they were not short of.
Pick68
Rnd3
Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba at No. 68 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick105
Rnd4
Graham Barton
They took Graham Barton at par in the 105th pick, which is nothing to complain about. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick107
Rnd4
Tyleik Williams
By-the-book stuff, Tyleik Williams at the 107th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick108
Rnd4
Troy Fautanu
Troy Fautanu at pick 108 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It fills a real need, too.
Pick135
Rnd4
Darius Robinson
They went early on Darius Robinson in pick 135, and the value did not follow. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick141
Rnd5
Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton at Round 5, Pick 5 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick182
Rnd6
Ainias Smith
They did well to land Ainias Smith in the 182nd overall pick, just ahead of his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick186
Rnd6
Cam Hart
Cam Hart at No. 186 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick225
Rnd7
Storm Duck
Storm Duck in the Round 7 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
