Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueA- NeedA- TradesB+ FutureB
Best value of the weekend goes to the Bears for Nolen: B+.

Somebody in pick No. 39 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Bears sat still while Walter Nolen, the No. 19 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. A dependable weekend that grades out a B+.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the 14th overall pick they get a bell-cow for the offense, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick39 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
They barely believed it either: Walter Nolen still on the board at the 39th pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in pick No. 41 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick50 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Omarion Hampton in Round 2, Pick 18, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick72 Rnd3 Deone Walker
A slide stopped in slot 72, with Deone Walker worth more than the price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
