Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Bears let Ersery fall and pounced. Final grade: A.

The real work happened on the phones. The Bears fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with. It holds up to a second look, which is why it earns the A.

On value alone, Ersery makes the weekend a net positive. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

Walker has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

Bottom line, with Malaki Starks leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick39 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Malaki Starks in the 39th overall pick. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick41 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton at the Round 2 slot is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick42 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Circle this one: Jalon Walker at Round 2, Pick 10 is a fall that decides a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick50 Rnd2 Deone Walker
Deone Walker at slot 50 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick72 Rnd3 Aireontae Ersery
Steal is underselling it; Aireontae Ersery at pick 72 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
