Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesC FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Bears: B-.

The Bears' one glaring miss is running back, a need they left exactly as they found it.

The cost of the Young reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the running back spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Zion Young
In slot 31 they get a problem off the edge, though they paid up to get him. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick57 Rnd2 A.J. Haulcy
Fair-plus on A.J. Haulcy, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick60 Rnd2 Malachi Lawrence
A reach on Malachi Lawrence in the 60th overall pick; the board had better options right there. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick89 Rnd3 Bryce Lance
They took Bryce Lance at par in Round 3, Pick 25, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick129 Rnd4 Kaleb Proctor
Kaleb Proctor in No. 129 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick191 Rnd6 Keagen Trost
Keagen Trost in pick No. 191 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick239 Rnd7 Andre Fuller
Andre Fuller at pick 239 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick241 Rnd7 Bryce Foster
A reach for Bryce Foster in the 241st pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
