Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Bears and Harris: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Tre Harris got past him. The Bears do not have to explain a thing at No. 110.

The Foster reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. That running back hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but running back.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In No. 20 they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker. A real need, handled.
Pick33 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
A slide stopped in slot 33, with Jack Sawyer worth more than the price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick52 Rnd2 Mykel Williams
The board had Mykel Williams higher than the 52nd overall pick, and the edge rusher fell to them anyway. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick84 Rnd3 Wyatt Milum
Wyatt Milum at pick 84 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick110 Rnd4 Tre Harris
A wide receiver of that caliber at the Round 4 slot is the definition of value, full stop. The roster fit checks out.
Pick116 Rnd4 Davison Igbinosun
They left a pile of value on the table to take Davison Igbinosun this early at Round 4, Pick 20. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick148 Rnd5 Bryce Foster
They talked themselves into Bryce Foster at the 148th pick, and the board did not agree. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick180 Rnd6 Thor Griffith
They paid a round early for Thor Griffith in pick No. 180, more than the board wanted. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick182 Rnd6 Hunter Wohler
Hunter Wohler in the Round 6 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
