Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
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.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Melton. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In the 1st pick they get a passer to set the clock by at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Malachi Corley
They took Malachi Corley at par in pick No. 57, which is nothing to complain about. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick68 Rnd3 Mekhi Wingo
A clean, defensible pick in slot 68 with a little surplus value in Mekhi Wingo. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick104 Rnd4 D.J. James
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, D.J. James in pick 104, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick132 Rnd4 Max Melton
Max Melton in Round 4, Pick 32 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick141 Rnd5 Zach Frazier
A tidy bit of business in the 141st overall pick, where Zach Frazier graded well above the range. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick182 Rnd6 Devin Neal
Devin Neal at No. 182 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick225 Rnd7 Mario Williams
A quiet steal in the Round 7 slot: Mario Williams for less than the market said. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
