Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D-
ValueB NeedB- TradesF FutureB-
The Bears left with their quarterback, and a D- to match.

The phones were a trap the Bears kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal.

Jayden Daniels gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. Spending an early pick on TE-EDGE with interior defensive lineman and linebacker open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

The Stover reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
Jayden Daniels at pick No. 6 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In Round 1, Pick 9 they get a home-run threat at receiver. A real need, handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
A slide stopped in slot 39, with Keon Coleman worth more than the price. The roster fit checks out.
Pick43 Rnd2 Graham Barton
Nice patience on Graham Barton, who had no business lasting to the 43rd overall pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick75 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
They paid up for Sedrick Van Pran at the Round 3 slot when waiting would have done the job. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick110 Rnd4 Cade Stover
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick 110 on Cade Stover with interior defensive lineman and linebacker unsolved.
Pick125 Rnd4 Max Melton
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Max Melton at the 125th pick is the proof. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick146 Rnd5 Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop at No. 146 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick186 Rnd6 Jaylen Harrell
Jaylen Harrell in the 186th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick232 Rnd7 Blake Watson
They took Blake Watson at par in No. 232, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
