Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Bears.

Some picks age like wine; Fred Davis at pick No. 244 will need to, sitting 151 spots clear of his grade.

The Mondon Jr. pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In the Round 1 slot they get an anchor for the defensive front. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick35 Rnd2 Charles Grant
They reached into another round for Charles Grant, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick41 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
A tidy bit of business in No. 41, where Jack Sawyer graded well above the range. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick73 Rnd3 Logan Brown
Logan Brown at Round 3, Pick 9 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick147 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
Somehow Smael Mondon Jr. was still sitting there in pick 147, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick203 Rnd6 Jared Wilson
The board had cheaper options than Jared Wilson at slot 203, and it noticed. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick226 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
Garrett Dellinger in No. 226 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick244 Rnd7 Fred Davis
Fred Davis at the 244th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
