Going through what was a wild, but ultimately sensible first round of the 2017 NFL Draft, it's pretty easy to find the one team that really seemed to have a curious first day of the draft. The Chicago Bears drafted what they believe is a franchise quarterback in Mitchell Trubisky, but they paid a hefty price to move up just a single pick and, really, the whole thing looks a little odd just in general.

For instance, according to a report from Chris Mortensen of ESPN, the Bears declined to let John Fox, the head coach of their football team, know that they were taking Trubisky with the No. 2 pick.

Fox isn't some offensive savant, but I'm pretty sure you want to let him know who you were taking with your top pick. He's the coach. And if he didn't know it was Trubisky, he was probably expecting to get either Solomon Thomas or Jamal Adams, really good defensive players. Maybe at some point he was like "Hey, Ryan, which guy are we taking?"

According to Pace following the draft, via Rich Campbell of the Chicago Tribune, Pace said that Fox was involved in the decision to take a young quarterback.

"John and I are arm-in-arm in all these decisions," Pace said. "So we talked about this thoroughly, and we're connected on this. John is just as excited as I am. So when you have an opportunity to get a quarterback of this caliber, you can't pass on it. So we're good."

Pace can say that all he wants. And if Trubisky is good, he can do a Mick Jagger dance down the Magnificent Mile because he will have landed a franchise quarterback.

In the meantime, it's perfectly fine to wonder about this pick. Let's ignore Trubisky the player -- personally, I think he is a good player, but others aren't high on him as an NFL quarterback. He is a projection, and no one knows if he will be a franchise quarterback. 

Instead, let's look at the price that was paid by the Bears to move up and whether it was necessary. Former GM Mike Lombardi, now with The Ringer, said he made calls around the league to find out where the 49ers' leverage was coming from, and he couldn't figure it out.

Yahoo's Charles Robinson and NFL Media's Mike Silver echo the same sentiment. 

Robinson adds that the 49ers shopped the pick "hard" for a full week and "no one" was biting. That was the conventional wisdom when it came to the No. 2 pick; there wasn't a consensus second prospect, and the cost was too high to move up. No one was running up to No. 2 overall because of the 49ers' demands.

So why did the Bears pay to move up? They could have called the 49ers' bluff, told them to trade the pick and then either taken Trubisky or Solomon Thomas. 

Adam Jahns of the Chicago Sun-Times does report that there were "a handful of teams" trying to move up and two of them, Cleveland and Kansas City, were high on Trubisky. Per Jahns, Pace was worried someone would snag Trubisky. 

Conversations with several league sources overnight revealed that there were a handful of teams who aggressively attempted to try to move up in the draft, namely the Browns, Chiefs, Cardinals and Texans. The Browns and Chiefs, per those sources, were thought to be very high on Trubisky.

It's unknown whether any teams were close to beating out the Bears for the 49ers' second overall pick. But their interest alone was worth action. Pace wanted Trubisky and made sure to get him.

One of the things about the way the draft works is that by nature you only get one shot at a guy. You have to determine how badly you want someone and then pay that price. If you try to get cute or you don't stick to your guns, you can end up getting burned by another franchise looking to take advantage.

It really looks like the Bears got too cute here, or at the very least got outflanked by John Lynch, who was working his first night as a draft-room GM on Thursday. 

Again: if Trubisky is good and a franchise quarterback, then the Bears did good work here. The outcome matters! But the process is highly questionable considering what appeared to be an obvious marketplace for the quarterbacks and players at the top of the draft.

At least Bears fans are happy about the pick.
