Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Bears bet the future on Williams. The board says D.

The phones were a trap the Bears kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D.

Caleb Williams is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain.

The Pearsall pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In pick No. 1 they get their guy under center for the next decade at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick9 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the 9th overall pick they get a difference-maker at receiver at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick52 Rnd2 Jonah Elliss
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jonah Elliss at the 52nd pick is the proof. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick75 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
Javon Bullard slipping to slot 75 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick85 Rnd3 Ruke Orhorhoro
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Ruke Orhorhoro at No. 85. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick110 Rnd4 Cooper Beebe
They robbed the room for Cooper Beebe here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick119 Rnd4 Ricky Pearsall
Ricky Pearsall in pick 119 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick122 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
A offensive lineman of that caliber at Round 4, Pick 22 is the definition of value, full stop. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick146 Rnd5 Jaheim Bell
Fair-plus on Jaheim Bell, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick248 Rnd7 Darius Muasau
Darius Muasau at slot 248 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
