Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Bears and Winston Jr.: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Kevin Winston Jr., pick 149, roughly 45 picks past where he belonged.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
Mykel Williams at the 10th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick39 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
A straight-up fair deal on Tyler Booker at the 39th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick41 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
A quiet steal in No. 41: Omarion Hampton for less than the market said. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick72 Rnd3 Deone Walker
Deone Walker at slot 72 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick149 Rnd5 Kevin Winston Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Kevin Winston Jr. at the Round 5 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick197 Rnd6 Antwane Wells Jr.
Antwane Wells Jr. slipping to pick No. 197 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick235 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
Nothing to complain about; Teddye Buchanan went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick242 Rnd7 Jaylin Smith
No drama and no debate, Jaylin Smith went about where he belonged in pick 242. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
