Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
Winston Jr. should have been long gone. The Bears pounced, and earned a B+.

Call it larceny. Kevin Winston Jr. sat on the board until pick No. 197, and the Bears did not need to be asked twice.

Reaching for Martin left real value on the table behind him. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Josh Simmons
No drama and no debate, Josh Simmons went about where he belonged in the 14th overall pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick39 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
They did well to land Jack Sawyer in pick No. 39, just ahead of his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick41 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
A tidy bit of business in Round 2, Pick 9, where Omarion Hampton graded well above the range. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick72 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
They took Omarr Norman-Lott at par in pick 72, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick149 Rnd5 Savion Williams
Circle this one: Savion Williams at the 149th pick is a fall that decides a draft. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick197 Rnd6 Kevin Winston Jr.
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Kevin Winston Jr. in the Round 6 slot, plain and simple. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick235 Rnd7 Nick Martin
Nick Martin at No. 235 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick242 Rnd7 Chimere Dike
They barely believed it either: Chimere Dike still on the board at slot 242. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
