Grand theft in Round 7, Pick 24: the Bears steal Sanders and grade out a A. The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Bears watched Raheim Sanders slide 85 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.
If Crenshaw-Dickson pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.
Job largely done: interior defensive lineman settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.
Few war rooms will sleep better than this one tonight.
Pick Analysis
Pick23
Rnd1
Josh Simmons
In pick 23 they get an anchor for the offensive line, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick26
Rnd1
Walter Nolen
In the Round 1 slot they get a disruptive interior force, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick39
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in the 39th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick45
Rnd2
Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton slipping to pick No. 45 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick72
Rnd3
Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell in the 72nd pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick90
Rnd3
Jack Bech
They robbed the room for Jack Bech here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The roster fit checks out.
Pick100
Rnd3
TreVeyon Henderson
A running back of that caliber at Round 3, Pick 36 is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick124
Rnd4
Jake Majors
The board had Jake Majors higher than No. 124, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick126
Rnd4
Demetrius Knight Jr.
They will replay Demetrius Knight Jr. at pick No. 126 for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick139
Rnd4
Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore at slot 139 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick149
Rnd5
Mason Taylor
You do not let a tight end like Mason Taylor reach the 149th pick and blink. They did not. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick189
Rnd6
Ryan Fitzgerald
A top-tier specialist at a bargain, Ryan Fitzgerald in the 189th overall pick, plain and simple. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick197
Rnd6
Connor Colby
A tidy bit of business in the Round 6 slot, where Connor Colby graded well above the range. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick235
Rnd7
Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
They reached a country mile for Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson at No. 235, and the board is aghast. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick242
Rnd7
Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders in pick 242 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
