Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureC
The Bears left with their quarterback, and a B to match.

Start where it matters. The Bears took Drake Maye to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one. The bottom line is a respectable B.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Eboigbe has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In pick 9 they get the arm they will build around. A real need, handled.
Pick18 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In Round 1, Pick 18 they get a blindside protector, though they paid up to get him. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
A conviction pick on Cooper Beebe at the Round 2 slot that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick37 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
They reached a country mile for Xavier Worthy at pick No. 37, and the board is aghast. It fills a real need, too.
Pick75 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Value said wait; Brenden Rice in the 75th overall pick says they were not listening. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick122 Rnd4 Justin Eboigbe
They left a pile of value on the table to take Justin Eboigbe this early at slot 122. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick181 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at No. 181 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick225 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Frank Gore Jr. at the 225th pick squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
