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

You can draft well and still miss the point. The Bears did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to running back, which was the need that mattered most.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Savaiinaea. The Grant reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In the 20th overall pick they get a wrecking ball inside, though they paid up to get him. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick33 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jack Sawyer. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick52 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
A quiet steal in pick No. 52: Jonah Savaiinaea for less than the market said. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
