Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D-
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Bears found their guy under center in Williams: D-.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Bears, and the value they bled adds up to real damage. Hard to defend, and the D- reflects that.

Caleb Williams is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Trotter Jr..

The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In the 1st overall pick they get a franchise quarterback at fair value.
Pick9 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In pick 9 they get a problem off the edge. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick44 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
A reasonable price with a little left over, Chris Braswell in Round 2, Pick 12. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick75 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 75, where Kiran Amegadjie graded well above the range. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick77 Rnd3 Xavier Legette
Good price on Xavier Legette in No. 77, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick110 Rnd4 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at the 110th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick112 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
No drama and no debate, Matt Goncalves went about where he belonged in the Round 4 slot. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick122 Rnd4 Andru Phillips
Andru Phillips at slot 122 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
