Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA FutureA-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Bears for Judkins: B+.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Quinshon Judkins, slot 203, roughly 117 picks past where he belonged. Good, not great, and the B+ says as much.

The Tuimoloau reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it. Will Fries gives the group a proven body among the projects.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In the 13th pick they get a cornerstone up front, reach and all.
Pick40 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
A quiet steal in pick No. 40: Tate Ratledge for less than the market said. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick45 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
JT Tuimoloau in the Round 2 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick77 Rnd3 Tyleik Williams
They let Tyleik Williams come to them and pounced at pick 77. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick150 Rnd5 Parker Brailsford
Value with a capital V on Parker Brailsford in Round 5, Pick 12, a genuine coup. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick151 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A conviction pick on Dont'e Thornton Jr. at slot 151 that the board grades a round light. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick203 Rnd6 Quinshon Judkins
A running back of that caliber at the 203rd overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick228 Rnd7 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. at No. 228 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick244 Rnd7 Hunter Wohler
They will replay Hunter Wohler at the Round 7 slot for years; that is how good the value is. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
