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

The rest of the league had time to spare on Vincent Anthony Jr.; the Bears did not wait, grabbing him 43 spots ahead at pick 129. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

Landing Wheatley that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want. Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 LT Overton
In No. 25 they get a premier pass rusher, a steep price for the projection. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick57 Rnd2 Emmanuel Pregnon
Emmanuel Pregnon slid further than he should have, and the 57th overall pick is lovely value for the offensive lineman. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick89 Rnd3 Zakee Wheatley
Taking Zakee Wheatley in the 89th pick is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick129 Rnd4 Vincent Anthony Jr.
Vincent Anthony Jr. at Round 4, Pick 29 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick163 Rnd5 Earnest Greene III
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Earnest Greene III. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick239 Rnd7 London Humphreys
They did well to land London Humphreys in slot 239, just ahead of his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick241 Rnd7 Keaten Wade
This one needs a full-page explanation: Keaten Wade in No. 241, miles early. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
