#2. Chicago Bears

Grade: A+
Some people discredit the Bears for taking Caleb Williams first overall because it was such an obvious decision, but I think that's unfair to ignore the moves they made in last year's draft to make this happen. Drafting a generational prospect to be your franchise QB is never something to scoff at, especially when you adeptly positioned yourself to do so. On top of that, the Bears bolstered their new signal caller by adding an elite weapon to his supporting cast with Rome Odunze at pick 9. Chicago could have gone defense or trenches here, but the opportunity to give Caleb a dynamic, skilled receiver to grow with for years to come was too good to pass up. Not to mention, with how crazy WR contracts have been lately, this is a smart move for their mid-term finances and cap management. Kiren Amegadjie was also a great dart to throw in the 3rd round at a developmental tackle prospect. He has NFL size and wicked long arms. To wrap up the weekend, they drafted the best punter in the draft and Austin Booker, a great rotational edge rusher that should have been gone two rounds earlier.
