Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the 148th pick lands the Bears a B-, Farmer and all.

Call it larceny. Joshua Farmer sat on the board until the 148th overall pick, and the Bears did not need to be asked twice. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

The Matavao reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with interior defensive lineman the one that mattered most.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In pick 10 they get a long-term starter on the line. A real need, handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
No drama and no debate, Tyleik Williams went about where he belonged in the 39th overall pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick41 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts at No. 41 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick72 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
Nothing to complain about; Quinshon Judkins went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick148 Rnd5 Joshua Farmer
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Joshua Farmer reach the 148th pick and blink. They did not. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick233 Rnd7 Moliki Matavao
They left a pile of value on the table to take Moliki Matavao this early at the Round 7 slot. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick240 Rnd7 Bilhal Kone
A tidy little value on Bilhal Kone in pick No. 240, a step better than break-even. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
