Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB
Larceny in slot 198 lands the Bears a A-, Winston Jr. and all.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Bears watched Kevin Winston Jr. slide 96 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. Just about everything broke right, and the A- follows.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.

In the end it comes back to Ashton Jeanty, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the Round 1 slot they get a featured back at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick41 Rnd2 Armand Membou
Armand Membou is a better player than pick 41 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick72 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
They read the board right and Alfred Collins was the payoff at pick No. 72. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick149 Rnd5 Jaylin Noel
They barely believed it either: Jaylin Noel still on the board at slot 149. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick198 Rnd6 Kevin Winston Jr.
A safety of that caliber at the 198th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick235 Rnd7 Chase Lundt
Chase Lundt in the 235th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick242 Rnd7 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser at Round 7, Pick 24 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick246 Rnd7 Zeek Biggers
The board fumbled Zeek Biggers all the way to No. 246, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
