1 (20) - Kyle Long, OL, Oregon; 2 (50) - Jon Bostic, ILB, Florida; 4 (117) - Khaseem Greene, OLB, Rutgers; 5 (163) - Jordan Mills, OT, Louisiana Tech; 6 (188) - Cornelius Washington, OLB, Georgia; 7 (236) - Marquess Wilson, WR, Washington State
Top Picks Analysis: The Bears need a ton of help on what was one of the worst offensive lines in football in 2012 but they reached for Long in the first round, a talented but technically deficient player who should be protected by playing inside at guard. Bostic is the heir apparent to Brian Urlacher but a different type of middle linebacker, more of an instinctive, downhill run defender than a coverage guy.
Best Value Pick: Greene is a solid chase linebacker who excels in space and can track backs from behind. He also consistently goes for the strip and has a a strong punch at the ball which would have fit in great if Lovie Smith was sill around.
Questionable Calls: With players like Tyler Eifert, Desmond Trufant and Shariff Floyd taken directly after Long, it's tough to look at that pick and say general manager Phil Emery didn't strikeout.
Summary: The Bears desperately needed offensive line help, but ended up with a pair of projects and it's conceivable that fifth-round pick Mills is closer to helping at tackle than Long. Emery did much better at linebacker, getting Bostic and Greene as possible replacements for Urlacher and Nick Roach.
