Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA
The Bears turned the phones into found money: A-.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Bears, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend.

They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Bears clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.

The Colson steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In the 6th overall pick they get a disruptor off the edge at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick9 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
They took Olumuyiwa Fashanu at par in No. 9, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick39 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette in pick No. 39 is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick70 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
No drama and no debate, Johnny Wilson went about where he belonged in Round 3, Pick 6. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick75 Rnd3 Byron Murphy II
Nothing to complain about; Byron Murphy II went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick110 Rnd4 Beau Brade
They paid sticker price for Beau Brade in the Round 4 slot, and that is fine. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick127 Rnd4 Junior Colson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Junior Colson at slot 127 is the proof. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick146 Rnd5 Javion Cohen
A clean, defensible pick in pick 146 with a little surplus value in Javion Cohen. It fills a real need, too.
