Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesC FutureB
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Bears.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Trey Zuhn III; the Bears did not wait, grabbing him 41 spots ahead at slot 207. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer. With interior defensive lineman, running back and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on safety is the choice that costs them. They banked enough surplus on Kitselman to cover a lot of smaller sins.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 R Mason Thomas
In No. 31 they get juice off the edge. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick57 Rnd2 A.J. Haulcy
A.J. Haulcy at the 57th pick is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick89 Rnd3 Jacob Rodriguez
Jacob Rodriguez slipping to pick No. 89 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick129 Rnd4 Bud Clark
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went safety with Bud Clark while clear needs at interior defensive lineman, running back and other spots sat open.
Pick163 Rnd5 Aamil Wagner
A straight-up fair deal on Aamil Wagner at the 163rd overall pick, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick207 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
Trey Zuhn III at the Round 6 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick239 Rnd7 Miles Kitselman
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Miles Kitselman in the 239th pick. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick241 Rnd7 Bryce Foster
Bryce Foster in the Round 7 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
