Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueC- NeedB+ TradesA FutureB-
The Bears did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Bears started one anyway for Sam M'Pemba, 210 picks ahead of schedule.

They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it. The trade work was a quiet net positive.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Zion Young
They went early on Zion Young in the Round 1 slot, and the value did not follow. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick57 Rnd2 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
Emmanuel McNeil-Warren at pick No. 57 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick60 Rnd2 Jacob Rodriguez
Jacob Rodriguez at slot 60 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick74 Rnd3 Bryce Lance
Bryce Lance at pick 74 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick89 Rnd3 Treydan Stukes
Treydan Stukes in the 89th pick is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick129 Rnd4 Kaleb Proctor
Kaleb Proctor at Round 4, Pick 29 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick239 Rnd7 Nolan Rucci
Nolan Rucci in slot 239 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick241 Rnd7 Sam M'Pemba
They talked themselves into Sam M'Pemba at the Round 7 slot, and the board did not agree. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
