Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB FutureB+
A solid, sensible weekend for the Bears: B.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Jack Nelson at the 58th overall pick, a reach of 60 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

Singleton at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 James Pearce Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get juice off the edge at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Dylan Fairchild
Dylan Fairchild at Round 2, Pick 7 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jack Nelson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jack Nelson in slot 58, miles early. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick72 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Omarr Norman-Lott. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick123 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Jake Majors in the 123rd overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick147 Rnd5 Nicholas Singleton
The board fumbled Nicholas Singleton all the way to No. 147, and they scooped it up. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick169 Rnd5 Hayden Conner
Circle this one: Hayden Conner at pick No. 169 is a fall that decides a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick206 Rnd6 Seth McLaughlin
By-the-book stuff, Seth McLaughlin at pick 206 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
