Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA+ FutureA-
Quarterback settled, Williams in the fold, and a B+ for the Bears.

The search is over. The Bears handed the keys to Caleb Williams, and the whole operation now runs on his development. More right than wrong, and a B+ to match.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. Every board in the league had Raym lower, and that gap is the story. A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want.

Landing Suamataia that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In the 1st pick they get the face of the franchise. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick18 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In the 18th overall pick they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick49 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Keon Coleman at pick 49 is the proof. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick75 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
No drama and no debate, Calen Bullock went about where he belonged in pick No. 75. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick76 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
The board fumbled Kingsley Suamataia all the way to slot 76, and they scooped it up. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick110 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
Mohamed Kamara in No. 110 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick112 Rnd4 McKinnley Jackson
A conviction pick on McKinnley Jackson at Round 4, Pick 12 that the board grades a round light. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick115 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson in the Round 4 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick160 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at pick 160 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick204 Rnd6 Andrew Raym
Andrew Raym at the 204th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
