Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureA
Quarterback settled, Maye in the fold, and a D for the Bears.

The trade table was where it all came apart. The Bears shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill.

Everything downstream of Drake Maye depends on Drake Maye, and the building knows it. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and interior defensive lineman is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In the 3rd pick they get a long-term answer under center. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick9 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In pick No. 9 they get a bendy edge with upside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan slipping to No. 34 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick43 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
By-the-book stuff, Xavier Worthy at Round 2, Pick 11 squarely in line with his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick75 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
No edge and no loss on Christian Haynes in slot 75; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick110 Rnd4 Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Jarvis Brownlee Jr. at the 110th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick111 Rnd4 Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks at the Round 4 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick123 Rnd4 Justin Eboigbe
They paid sticker price for Justin Eboigbe in pick 123, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick143 Rnd5 Beaux Limmer
They took Beaux Limmer at par in the 143rd overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
