Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Bears fleeced the room on the phones and earned a A-.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Bears would have aced it. Jalen Thompson at the 239th overall pick is 64 spots clear of where he belonged. A near-flawless weekend of work, and a A- to cap it.

Robertson at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back.

It is a haul that will look even better come September.

Pick Analysis
Pick106 Rnd4 Jake Golday
Jake Golday at pick No. 106 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick129 Rnd4 Domani Jackson
They read the board right and Domani Jackson was the payoff at Round 4, Pick 29. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick152 Rnd5 Eric O'Neill
Value said wait; Eric O'Neill in the 152nd pick says they were not listening. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick160 Rnd5 Nic Anderson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Nic Anderson at the Round 5 slot is the proof. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick163 Rnd5 DeMonte Capehart
A tidy little value on DeMonte Capehart in the 163rd overall pick, a step better than break-even. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick165 Rnd5 Kage Casey
Kage Casey at pick 165 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The roster fit checks out.
Pick173 Rnd5 Trey Moore
A big swing on Trey Moore at pick 173, well ahead of any board in the building. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick239 Rnd7 Jalen Thompson
Jalen Thompson in pick No. 239 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick241 Rnd7 Sawyer Robertson
They robbed the room for Sawyer Robertson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick252 Rnd7 Dominic Zvada
This one needs a full-page explanation: Dominic Zvada in the 252nd pick, miles early. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
