Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Bears checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

The Bears torched the value chart for Keyron Crawford, taking him 40 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Getting Thomas where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Olaivavega Ioane
In pick No. 25 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Gabe Jacas
Gabe Jacas in No. 57 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick60 Rnd2 Derrick Moore
Derrick Moore at the 60th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick89 Rnd3 Keyron Crawford
They reached into another round for Keyron Crawford, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick129 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
Jalon Kilgore at slot 129 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick239 Rnd7 Zavion Thomas
Zavion Thomas at pick 239 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick241 Rnd7 Xavier Nwankpa
Value with a capital V on Xavier Nwankpa in slot 241, a genuine coup. A minor itch, scratched.
