Boke DRAFTING FOR THEBears
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Bears
Overall
B-
ValueB-
NeedB

FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Bears, and a B- to prove it. The Bears' one glaring miss is interior defensive lineman, a need they left exactly as they found it. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.
The Turner pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Loveland.
In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
Pick Analysis
Pick18
Rnd1
Luther Burden III
In the Round 1 slot they get a matchup problem out wide. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick35
Rnd2
Wyatt Milum
A straight-up fair deal on Wyatt Milum at the 35th pick, value and slot in agreement. The roster fit checks out.
Pick50
Rnd2
Abdul Carter
By-the-book stuff, Abdul Carter at the 50th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick82
Rnd3
Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland is a better player than pick No. 82 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick156
Rnd5
Shemar Turner
Shemar Turner in Round 5, Pick 18 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick200
Rnd6
Xzavier Henderson
Xzavier Henderson at pick 200 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
