Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D-
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Bears left with their quarterback, and a D- to match.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Bears, and the value they bled adds up to real damage.

Everything downstream of Caleb Williams depends on Caleb Williams, and the building knows it. For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Van Pran pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

The Davis pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and interior defensive lineman is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In Round 1, Pick 1 they get their guy under center for the next decade. A real need, handled.
Pick9 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
Laiatu Latu at the 9th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick27 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In No. 27 they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick28 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In the Round 1 slot they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick75 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
They jumped the gun on Sedrick Van Pran, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick110 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
A slide stopped in the 110th pick, with Dominick Puni worth more than the price. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick127 Rnd4 Beau Brade
A quiet steal in pick No. 127: Beau Brade for less than the market said. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick146 Rnd5 Dallin Holker
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Dallin Holker in slot 146. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick186 Rnd6 Theo Wease Jr.
They read the board right and Theo Wease Jr. was the payoff at pick No. 186. It fills a real need, too.
Pick232 Rnd7 Isaiah Davis
They let Isaiah Davis come to them and pounced at the 232nd pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
