Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bears let Moss fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Le'Veon Moss tumbling to the Bears in the Round 7 slot is a gift they did not have to think twice about. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

They are betting Toia proves the room right and everyone else wrong. For all the activity, cornerback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own. Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Wyatt Milum
In slot 12 they get a building block for the line at fair value.
Pick40 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
Walter Nolen at pick 40 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick47 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
They took Tyler Booker at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick74 Rnd3 Nick Emmanwori
They will replay Nick Emmanwori at the 74th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick113 Rnd4 Harold Fannin Jr.
Harold Fannin Jr. in pick No. 113 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick114 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Somehow Jake Majors was still sitting there in Round 4, Pick 13, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick117 Rnd4 Dylan Fairchild
They robbed the room for Dylan Fairchild here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick122 Rnd4 Jalon Walker
A reach on Jalon Walker in No. 122; the board had better options right there. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick185 Rnd6 Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim at the 185th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It fills a real need, too.
Pick188 Rnd6 J.Michael Sturdivant
J.Michael Sturdivant at No. 188 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick203 Rnd6 Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock in the 203rd overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick228 Rnd7 Xavier Nwankpa
Xavier Nwankpa in pick 228 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick233 Rnd7 Jay Toia
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jay Toia this early at slot 233. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick234 Rnd7 Le'Veon Moss
You do not let a running back like Le'Veon Moss reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick247 Rnd7 Julian Fleming
They talked themselves into Julian Fleming at pick No. 247, and the board did not agree. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick249 Rnd7 Donovan Edwards
Donovan Edwards at Round 7, Pick 35 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
