Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA FutureB+
A passer of the future in Daniels, and a B+, for the Bears.

Start where it matters. The Bears took Jayden Daniels to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one.

The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Carson reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but running back.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In the Round 1 slot they get the face of the franchise. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick12 Rnd1 Jer'Zhan Newton
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get a load in the middle at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick27 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In No. 27 they get a long-term starter on the line at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick35 Rnd2 Brian Thomas Jr.
Brian Thomas Jr. in pick 35 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick71 Rnd3 Brandon Dorlus
Brandon Dorlus in pick No. 71 is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick75 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
A straight-up fair deal on Cooper Beebe at slot 75, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick76 Rnd3 Caelen Carson
A reach on Caelen Carson in the 76th overall pick; the board had better options right there. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick111 Rnd4 Jaden Hicks
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jaden Hicks in the 111th pick. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick114 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
They paid sticker price for Darius Robinson in pick No. 114, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick123 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
They took Tommy Eichenberg at par in Round 4, Pick 23, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
Pick143 Rnd5 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
No edge and no loss on Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint in No. 143; it is a wash and a sensible one. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
