Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesC+ FutureB-
The Bears kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The Bears went off the board in a big way for Tristan Leigh, 49 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.

The Reese steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In No. 25 they get a three-down second-level presence at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Lee Hunter
Lee Hunter in slot 57 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick100 Rnd3 Jalon Kilgore
A reach on Jalon Kilgore in the Round 3 slot; the board had better options right there. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick129 Rnd4 Logan Jones
Logan Jones at pick 129 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick163 Rnd5 Tristan Leigh
Tristan Leigh at pick No. 163 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The roster fit checks out.
Pick164 Rnd5 Patrick Payton
Patrick Payton at Round 5, Pick 26 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick241 Rnd7 Micah Morris
Micah Morris at the 241st overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick242 Rnd7 Roman Hemby
Roman Hemby at slot 242 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
