Draft Grade — Bears

FutureA-
The Bears robbed the room for Golday. Final grade: B+. You could see the war room lean forward. Jake Golday at the 89th overall pick is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. A dependable weekend that grades out a B+.
The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Hunter pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.
The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss. Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Lee Hunter
In the 30th overall pick they get a wrecking ball inside, reach and all. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick60
Rnd2
Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
They let Emmanuel McNeil-Warren come to them and pounced at Round 2, Pick 28. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick89
Rnd3
Jake Golday
A edge rusher of that caliber at the Round 3 slot is the definition of value, full stop. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick139
Rnd5
Bud Clark
Bud Clark at pick 139 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick163
Rnd5
Jude Bowry
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jude Bowry in No. 163. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick239
Rnd7
Kaden Wetjen
Kaden Wetjen at pick No. 239 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick241
Rnd7
Luke Altmyer
No edge and no loss on Luke Altmyer in the 241st pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A need, and now a little less of one.
