Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
Quarterback settled, Maye in the fold, and a B+ for the Bears.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Drake Maye is the Bears' quarterback, full stop.

If Smith pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.

They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In slot 6 they get their quarterback of the future. A real need, handled.
Pick9 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In pick No. 9 they get a blindside protector at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick75 Rnd3 Brandon Dorlus
A straight-up fair deal on Brandon Dorlus at the Round 3 slot, value and slot in agreement. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick122 Rnd4 Tykee Smith
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tykee Smith in pick 122, miles early. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
