Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB NeedB- TradesC+ FutureA
The Bears let Melton fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

When a board-topper like Max Melton slides to slot 142, you do not overthink it, and the Bears did not. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September. They went 3 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The skill positions did well by the weekend.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In slot 1 they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value.
Pick5 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In pick No. 5 they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick69 Rnd3 Kamren Kinchens
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Kamren Kinchens. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick128 Rnd4 J. Michael Sturdivant
Good price on J. Michael Sturdivant in Round 4, Pick 28, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick142 Rnd5 Max Melton
A cornerback of that caliber at No. 142 is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
