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

The Bears looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Keyron Crawford at Round 3, Pick 25 regardless, 34 picks early.

That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. However the rest shakes out, Coleman Jr. at that price is a win they earned. Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Akheem Mesidor
In the Round 1 slot they get a problem off the edge, reach and all. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick57 Rnd2 Dani Dennis-Sutton
Dani Dennis-Sutton in the 57th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick89 Rnd3 Keyron Crawford
Keyron Crawford at pick 89 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick129 Rnd4 Ar'maj Reed-Adams
A straight-up fair deal on Ar'maj Reed-Adams at No. 129, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick163 Rnd5 Kevin Coleman Jr.
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 163, where Kevin Coleman Jr. graded well above the range. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick239 Rnd7 Charles Demmings
By-the-book stuff, Charles Demmings at slot 239 squarely in line with his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick241 Rnd7 Alan Herron
They paid a round early for Alan Herron in pick 241, more than the board wanted. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
