Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueC- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Bears checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Derrick Moore, 87 picks early at the 73rd overall pick. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

Getting Paul Jr. where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In pick No. 9 they get an anchor for the defensive front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick36 Rnd2 Charles Grant
Charles Grant in the 36th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick40 Rnd2 Dylan Fairchild
A reach on Dylan Fairchild in the 40th pick; the board had better options right there. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick73 Rnd3 Derrick Moore
Derrick Moore at the Round 3 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick146 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Davison Igbinosun well ahead of where he belonged. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick202 Rnd6 Chris Paul Jr.
They will replay Chris Paul Jr. at Round 6, Pick 27 for years; that is how good the value is. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick228 Rnd7 Jared Wilson
A quiet steal in slot 228: Jared Wilson for less than the market said. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick244 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
Garrett Dellinger at the 244th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
