Draft Grade — Bears
Overall
B+
ValueB
NeedB
TradesA+
FutureB
Mondon Jr. should have been long gone. The Bears pounced, and earned a B+. The Bears did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Smael Mondon Jr. fell into No. 249.
They will need Zuhn III to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
James Pearce Jr.
In the 12th pick they get a bendy edge with upside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41
Rnd2
Kenneth Grant
Somehow Kenneth Grant was still sitting there in pick No. 41, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick43
Rnd2
Luther Burden III
Luther Burden III in pick 43 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick72
Rnd3
Malaki Starks
Taking Malaki Starks in the 72nd overall pick is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick100
Rnd3
Emery Jones Jr.
Value said wait; Emery Jones Jr. in slot 100 says they were not listening. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick110
Rnd4
Trey Zuhn III
A big swing on Trey Zuhn III at the Round 4 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick142
Rnd5
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They talked themselves into Dont'e Thornton Jr. at No. 142, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick147
Rnd5
Kevin Winston Jr.
You do not let a safety like Kevin Winston Jr. reach Round 5, Pick 10 and blink. They did not. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick148
Rnd5
Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson in No. 148 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick186
Rnd6
Luke Lachey
A real head-scratcher, Luke Lachey in the 186th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick188
Rnd6
Bryson Nesbit
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Bryson Nesbit well ahead of where he belonged. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick193
Rnd6
Lander Barton
The board fumbled Lander Barton all the way to the Round 6 slot, and they scooped it up. It fills a real need, too.
Pick226
Rnd7
Le'Veon Moss
Le'Veon Moss at pick 226 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick230
Rnd7
Donovan Edwards
Donovan Edwards at the 230th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick233
Rnd7
Nick Martin
They liked Nick Martin enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 233. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick240
Rnd7
Damien Martinez
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Damien Martinez at slot 240. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick249
Rnd7
Smael Mondon Jr.
They barely believed it either: Smael Mondon Jr. still on the board at the 249th pick. The roster fit checks out.
