Draft Grade — Bears
Overall
A-
ValueB+
NeedB-
TradesA-
FutureA
Quarterback settled, Williams in the fold, and a A- for the Bears. The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Bears spent their marquee pick on Caleb Williams, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback. This is how you run a draft, and the A- reflects it.
Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Franklin. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Bears indulged a want in Hicks while a need in edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots stayed open.
Trust the process, because this time the process plainly worked.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
In No. 4 they get a franchise quarterback. A real need, handled.
Pick12
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the 12th pick they get a true top target, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick27
Rnd1
Nate Wiggins
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get a potential shutdown corner, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick35
Rnd2
Tyler Nubin
Tyler Nubin at the Round 2 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick45
Rnd2
Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan in slot 45 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick56
Rnd2
Kamari Lassiter
The board fumbled Kamari Lassiter all the way to pick 56, and they scooped it up. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick66
Rnd3
Jonathon Brooks
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 66 with a little surplus value in Jonathon Brooks. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick71
Rnd3
Troy Franklin
They will replay Troy Franklin at the 71st overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick76
Rnd3
Sedrick Van Pran
A conviction pick on Sedrick Van Pran at pick No. 76 that the board grades a round light. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick111
Rnd4
Zak Zinter
Nice patience on Zak Zinter, who had no business lasting to pick 111. The roster fit checks out.
Pick114
Rnd4
Josh Newton
They barely believed it either: Josh Newton still on the board at the Round 4 slot. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick121
Rnd4
Dominick Puni
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Dominick Puni in slot 121, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick123
Rnd4
Jaden Hicks
They bypassed pressing needs at edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots to take Jaden Hicks, a safety that was not the priority.
Pick142
Rnd5
Jordan Travis
Jordan Travis at the 142nd overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
