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

The Bears ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. They banked enough surplus on Sainristil to cover a lot of smaller sins.

Powers-Johnson has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
No edge and no loss on Marvin Harrison Jr. in No. 2; it is a wash and a sensible one. It fills a real need, too.
Pick9 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
Brock Bowers in slot 9 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick40 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
They jumped the gun on Jackson Powers-Johnson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick67 Rnd3 Adisa Isaac
Good price on Adisa Isaac in the 67th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick75 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
Christian Haynes in pick 75 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick100 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
They read the board right and Mike Sainristil was the payoff at the 100th overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick110 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
Matt Goncalves at the Round 4 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick122 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
By-the-book stuff, Cole Bishop at pick No. 122 squarely in line with his ranking. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick146 Rnd5 Will Shipley
The board had Will Shipley higher than the Round 5 slot, and the running back fell to them anyway. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
