Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB NeedB- TradesA+ FutureC
Grand theft in pick 229: the Bears steal Williams and grade out a B.

Call it larceny. Miyan Williams sat on the board until the Round 7 slot, and the Bears did not need to be asked twice. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want. Chase Young gives the group a proven body among the projects.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In the Round 1 slot they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In No. 9 they get a No. 1 receiver. A real need, handled.
Pick40 Rnd2 Bralen Trice
Bralen Trice at the 40th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick67 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
They paid sticker price for Javon Bullard in the 67th overall pick, and that is fine. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick75 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Good price on Brenden Rice in pick 75, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The roster fit checks out.
Pick110 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
Blake Fisher at pick No. 110 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick122 Rnd4 Max Melton
Value with a capital V on Max Melton in slot 122, a genuine coup. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick146 Rnd5 Cam Hart
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Cam Hart in Round 5, Pick 10. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick147 Rnd5 Jordan Travis
Jordan Travis in pick 147 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick169 Rnd5 Nathan Thomas
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Nathan Thomas. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick187 Rnd6 Aki Ogunbiyi
No drama and no debate, Aki Ogunbiyi went about where he belonged in Round 6, Pick 12. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick229 Rnd7 Miyan Williams
Miyan Williams in the 229th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick253 Rnd7 Aaron Frost
They read the board right and Aaron Frost was the payoff at pick No. 253. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick255 Rnd7 Demani Richardson
They let Demani Richardson come to them and pounced at No. 255. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick256 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
Nothing to complain about; Dwight McGlothern went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
