Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesC FutureB+
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Bears: B.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Marvin Jones Jr., 99 picks early at Round 7, Pick 23.

The Wheatley steal is the beam this whole class leans on. Spending an early pick on safety with running back and quarterback open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick47 Rnd2 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
Fair-plus on Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick57 Rnd2 Lee Hunter
Lee Hunter in pick 57 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick62 Rnd2 Jacob Rodriguez
Jacob Rodriguez slid further than he should have, and the Round 2 slot is lovely value for the linebacker. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick89 Rnd3 Treydan Stukes
Treydan Stukes is a better player than slot 89 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick111 Rnd4 Zakee Wheatley
A curious use of the 111th overall pick. Running back and quarterback needed the pick; a safety in Zakee Wheatley did not.
Pick113 Rnd4 Logan Jones
They read the board right and Logan Jones was the payoff at Round 4, Pick 13. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick129 Rnd4 Jack Endries
A tidy little value on Jack Endries in pick No. 129, a step better than break-even. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick239 Rnd7 Marvin Jones Jr.
They reached into another round for Marvin Jones Jr., and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick241 Rnd7 Zavion Thomas
Zavion Thomas at the 241st overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick256 Rnd7 Nolan Rucci
They liked Nolan Rucci enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 256. A need, and now a little less of one.
