Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Bears a B.

The Bears torched the value chart for Dontay Corleone, taking him 119 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

The Burden III value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Deone Walker
In the 22nd overall pick they get a wrecking ball inside, though they paid up to get him. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick37 Rnd2 Landon Jackson
Nothing to complain about; Landon Jackson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick46 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
Jonah Savaiinaea at the Round 2 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick53 Rnd2 Luther Burden III
They will replay Luther Burden III at pick No. 53 for years; that is how good the value is. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick77 Rnd3 Kevin Winston Jr.
A reach for Kevin Winston Jr. in No. 77; a little patience would have been rewarded. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick120 Rnd4 Aireontae Ersery
The board had cheaper options than Aireontae Ersery at slot 120, and it noticed. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick149 Rnd5 Mykel Williams
Mykel Williams at the 149th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick201 Rnd6 Dontay Corleone
Dontay Corleone at the Round 6 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick245 Rnd7 Alfred Collins
A real head-scratcher, Alfred Collins in pick No. 245 is miles ahead of his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick256 Rnd7 Trevor Etienne
Trevor Etienne at slot 256 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
