Overall B

ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-

A sensible, unshowy class lands the Bears a B.

The one they had to fix is still broken. The Bears left edge rusher untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

Interior defensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick25 Rnd1 Kayden McDonald

In No. 25 they get an anchor for the defensive front at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.

Pick57 Rnd2 Michael Taaffe

A clean, defensible pick in Round 2, Pick 25 with a little surplus value in Michael Taaffe. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
