Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
Nobody dealt better than the Bears this weekend: A-.

The real work happened on the phones. The Bears fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with. This is how you run a draft, and the A- reflects it.

Landing Grimes that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want. The cost of the Fashanu reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

In short, they turned a good board into a better roster, and it shows.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front, though they paid up to get him. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick7 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In pick No. 7 they get a true top target. A real need, handled.
Pick35 Rnd2 Dallas Turner
They read the board right and Dallas Turner was the payoff at the 35th pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick36 Rnd2 Nate Wiggins
A straight-up fair deal on Nate Wiggins at pick 36, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick39 Rnd2 Calen Bullock
No edge and no loss on Calen Bullock in the 39th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick68 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran at slot 68 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick103 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
No drama and no debate, Smael Mondon Jr. went about where he belonged in No. 103. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick104 Rnd4 Tory Horton
A tidy bit of business in Round 4, Pick 4, where Tory Horton graded well above the range. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick107 Rnd4 Tyleik Williams
Tyleik Williams at No. 107 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick132 Rnd4 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
By-the-book stuff, Jamon Dumas-Johnson at pick 132 squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick141 Rnd5 Connor Colby
Connor Colby at pick No. 141 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick182 Rnd6 Jaden Hicks
They took Jaden Hicks at par in slot 182, which is nothing to complain about. The roster logic is harder to follow.
Pick225 Rnd7 Tony Grimes
A quiet steal in the 225th pick: Tony Grimes for less than the market said. Hard to map this one onto the depth chart at all.
Pick228 Rnd7 Willie Roberts
They let Willie Roberts come to them and pounced at Round 7, Pick 8. Need-wise, a curious use of the pick.
