Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueC NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Bears fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+.

The Drake Nugent selection is the head-turner. The Bears reached 95 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

The Wilson value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The Bears indulged a want in Sinnott while a need in interior defensive lineman and quarterback stayed open.

The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In No. 13 they get a true top target at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick20 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the 20th pick they get a sticky cover corner at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick21 Rnd1 Jordan Morgan
In Round 1, Pick 21 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A real need, handled.
Pick25 Rnd1 Kris Jenkins
In pick 25 they get a disruptor off the edge, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick26 Rnd1 Brandon Dorlus
In slot 26 they get a problem off the edge, though the board says they badly overpaid. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick35 Rnd2 Sedrick Van Pran
This one needs a full-page explanation: Sedrick Van Pran in the Round 2 slot, miles early. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick38 Rnd2 Drake Nugent
A big swing on Drake Nugent at pick No. 38, well ahead of any board in the building. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick41 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
A straight-up fair deal on Ja'Tavion Sanders at the Round 2 slot, value and slot in agreement. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick66 Rnd3 Graham Barton
Graham Barton in Round 3, Pick 2 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick71 Rnd3 Xavier Legette
Taking Xavier Legette in slot 71 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick75 Rnd3 Blake Corum
By-the-book stuff, Blake Corum at pick 75 squarely in line with his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick85 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on TreVeyon Henderson. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick110 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at the 110th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick120 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending No. 120 on Ben Sinnott with interior defensive lineman and quarterback unsolved.
Pick127 Rnd4 Jaden Hicks
They took Jaden Hicks at par in pick 127, which is nothing to complain about. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick146 Rnd5 Kris Abrams-Draine
They robbed the room for Kris Abrams-Draine here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick186 Rnd6 McKade Mettauer
McKade Mettauer in the 186th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick232 Rnd7 Jordan Magee
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jordan Magee at slot 232. It fills a real need, too.
