Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A
ValueA- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Bears won the night they stopped Bowman Jr. from sliding. Grade: A.

You could see the war room lean forward. Billy Bowman Jr. at pick No. 203 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. Add it all up and it grades out a clean A.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Bears paired the rookies with proven help, Frank Ragnow leading the way.

The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.

Bottom line, with T.J. Sanders leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick36 Rnd2 T.J. Sanders
T.J. Sanders at the Round 2 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
The board had Tate Ratledge higher than Round 2, Pick 9, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. The roster fit checks out.
Pick60 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Tyler Booker in pick 60, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick73 Rnd3 Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland at pick No. 73 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick110 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
Steal is underselling it; TreVeyon Henderson at No. 110 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick146 Rnd5 Daylen Everette
Somehow Daylen Everette was still sitting there in slot 146, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick203 Rnd6 Billy Bowman Jr.
Circle this one: Billy Bowman Jr. at the 203rd overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick228 Rnd7 Bryce Foster
Bryce Foster in the 228th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick244 Rnd7 Jonah Monheim
You do not let an offensive lineman like Jonah Monheim reach the 244th overall pick and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
