Draft Grade — Bears
Overall C+
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Bears cashed the board's mistake on Turner: C+.

The Bears spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Dallas Turner, the No. 14 name on the board, in slot 44.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. The linebacker hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They are betting Lloyd proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In slot 13 they get a true top target at fair value.
Pick15 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In Round 1, Pick 15 they get a cornerstone up front. A real need, handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 Dallas Turner
Taking Dallas Turner in pick 44 is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick46 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Nothing to complain about; Xavier Worthy went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick75 Rnd3 Braden Fiske
They paid sticker price for Braden Fiske in No. 75, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick82 Rnd3 Gabriel Murphy
Gabriel Murphy at the 82nd overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick111 Rnd4 DJ James
DJ James in the 111th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick123 Rnd4 MarShawn Lloyd
They went early on MarShawn Lloyd in the Round 4 slot, and the value did not follow. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick143 Rnd5 Cole Bishop
A tidy bit of business in slot 143, where Cole Bishop graded well above the range. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
