Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in Round 2, Pick 9: the Bears steal Nolen and grade out a B.

The board owed the Bears one, and it paid up: Walter Nolen, the No. 21 name on the board, sitting there at pick 41 like a gift left on the doorstep. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. Interior defensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Armand Membou
In the 10th overall pick they get protection for the quarterback. A real need, handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori in slot 39 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick41 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
Walter Nolen at the 41st pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick72 Rnd3 Harold Fannin Jr.
They will replay Harold Fannin Jr. at No. 72 for years; that is how good the value is. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick148 Rnd5 Pat Bryant
A clean, defensible pick in pick 148 with a little surplus value in Pat Bryant. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick233 Rnd7 Ja'Quinden Jackson
Ja'Quinden Jackson in the Round 7 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick240 Rnd7 Jabbar Muhammad
They took Jabbar Muhammad at par in pick No. 240, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
