Garrett and Allen should be no brainers for this team, so that's why i've been looking at the others.
S's don't normally go top 5, Cb's rarely do and OT is supposedly as bad or worse then QB. And at that point, why is anyone trading up for the Bears picks?
Is Malik Hooker a Berry type FS? If so then he's worth that pick, but that's a HUGE jump in assumption. Also there is only 1 DB that Walter has a top 10 pick grade on, the rest are all top 20 or 1st to 1-2 rounders. So really Only Hooker(at this time and it will change mind you) seems to be worth that pick.
So far IF Garrett/Allen are gone your best def player is a S, 3-4 DE's and OLB's and ILB's also don't have top 10 grades at this point. Going through the grades is actually sad, IT's Garrett/Allen/Hooker and everyone else. And I'm not sure Hooker is worth it....again check back after the combine and pro days and I bet there are far more top 10 worthy picks.
That's been my point regarding a QB worth the #3 pick, really no 3-4 Def player outside of Allen and Garrett are really worth that #3 pick either, so it's really going to depend on what and how Pace and his staff grade out the others. Per usual the Bears found a way to suck at the worst possible time, ala Ced Benson being the best choice.
I have full faith that Pace can get the job done correctly though.
It's possible that a team would want to trade up to get a player like Fournette or Cook. Fournette and Cook are listed as going as early as the Jags right after the Bears which means trading with the Bears would be perfect if a team felt that was their guy. It's even possible a team would trade up to get a QB if they felt they were the answer. The Jets could trade up for a QB or RB and the Panthers could trade up for a RB.
