Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Bears a A-.

The real work happened on the phones. The Bears fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with. Just about everything broke right, and the A- follows.

That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. However the rest shakes out, Rice at that price is a win they earned.

Trust the process, because this time the process plainly worked.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In No. 5 they get a No. 1 receiver. A real need, handled.
Pick12 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In the 12th pick they get a bendy edge with upside at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick69 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran at slot 69 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick105 Rnd4 Kiran Amegadjie
Good price on Kiran Amegadjie in the 105th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It fills a real need, too.
Pick128 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
Value with a capital V on Brenden Rice in pick 128, a genuine coup. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
