One anonymous NFL executive was high on the Bears’ decision to draft an offensive lineman, yet critical of the Bears’ turning their picks from the Roquan Smith and No. 1 pick trades into defensive prospects.
The Bears stuck to the script of the franchise by focusing a majority of the draft on the defense. They drafted defensive tackles Gervon Dexter and Zacch Pickens on Day 2, along with Miami cornerback Tyrique Stevenson. On Day 3, the Bears went after the brother of Penei Sewell, Noah, to help fill linebacker depth needs. Plus, Terell Smith, Travis Bell and Kendall Williamson, all of whom are defensive upgrades.
They only focused two of their 10 selections on the offense. During Round 4, the Bears selected Bijan Robinson's understudy at Texas, Roschon Johnson, who has received praise from outsiders and pundits. They also took Tyler Scott, a quick, athletic, route-running efficient wide receiver from Cincinnati.
Still, before the draft, the Bears snagged DJ Moore in a trade down from the No. 1 pick with the Carolina Panthers. They also signed Nate Davis to become the team's starting right guard alongside Cody Whitehair and Teven Jenkins on the interior. They boosted the running back room with veteran signings D'Onta Foreman and Travis Homer. The Bears also signed Robert Tonyan to the tight end room.Most would agree the offensive line still needs fixing.
But still, should the Bears have focused more of their energy on the offensive line during the draft?
