Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D-
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Bears answered their biggest question with Williams. Grade: D-.

When a board-topper like Kamal Hadden slides to Round 7, Pick 16, you do not overthink it, and the Bears did not.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. Caleb Williams is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

The Frazier reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, running back very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In the Round 1 slot they get a passer to set the clock by. A real need, handled.
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In No. 9 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
They left a pile of value on the table to take Zach Frazier this early at pick No. 43. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick75 Rnd3 Ruke Orhorhoro
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Ruke Orhorhoro in the 75th overall pick, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick123 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
Mohamed Kamara in the 123rd pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick124 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson in Round 4, Pick 24 is fair value, right on his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick135 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray is a better player than No. 135 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick236 Rnd7 Kamal Hadden
Circle this one: Kamal Hadden at pick 236 is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
