Most analysis shows the Bears gaining ground on the NFC North teams through the draft, although every team in division made progress addressing needs.
Teams come into it with different numbers of picks, different places from which to pick and varying needs.The Bears and the other teams of the NFC North had totally different perspectives and numbers of picks heading into the draft. It would have been difficult for any of the other teams to believe they had better drafts than Chicago because of where the Bears picked.
While some analysts see other teams in the NFC North close to the Bears, virtually none of the feedback has an NFC North team with a better draft than Chicago.The Packers lacked the top-end punch with their picks. However, what they did better than anyone was throw numbers at their problems. Somewhere in that pile of 11 picks might be answers to their problems.It's not often a team playing in the divisional round comes back with 11 draft picks.
The Packers were next to last in interceptions last year and No. 28 against the run. They're installing a new defense under a new coordinator.
