Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Bears, and a B- to prove it.

The Phillip Webb selection is the head-turner. The Bears reached 151 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want. The Wilson value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In the Round 1 slot they get an anchor for the offensive line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Value with a capital V on Kenneth Grant in No. 37, a genuine coup. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick40 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Good price on Tyler Booker in the 40th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick71 Rnd3 David Walker
Value said wait; David Walker in Round 3, Pick 7 says they were not listening. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick142 Rnd5 Phillip Webb
Phillip Webb at pick No. 142 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick200 Rnd6 Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun in slot 200 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick232 Rnd7 Jared Wilson
Somehow Jared Wilson was still sitting there in pick 232, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. It fills a real need, too.
Pick246 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
Garrett Dellinger in the 246th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
