Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureC+
Williams is the Bears' new face under center. Grade: B+.

The Bears spent the pick that matters most on Caleb Williams, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. They banked enough surplus on Rice to cover a lot of smaller sins. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In slot 1 they get a franchise quarterback. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick16 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In Round 1, Pick 16 they get a cornerstone up front, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick30 Rnd1 Byron Murphy II
In pick No. 30 they get a wrecking ball inside at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick66 Rnd3 Keon Coleman
A wide receiver of that caliber at No. 66 is the definition of value, full stop. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick127 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
They barely believed it either: Brenden Rice still on the board at the 127th overall pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
