Draft Grade — Bears

ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureA+
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Bears and Hall Jr.: B-.

The Bears lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again.

However the rest shakes out, Hall Jr. at that price is a win they earned. A whole weekend of picks and cornerback is somehow still a want. If Bishop pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the cornerback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In the 7th pick they get protection for the quarterback. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick10 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In Round 1, Pick 10 they get a double-digit-sack hope at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick39 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Nice patience on Emeka Egbuka, who had no business lasting to pick No. 39. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick74 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran in the 74th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick110 Rnd4 Michael Hall Jr.
They will replay Michael Hall Jr. at slot 110 for years; that is how good the value is. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick126 Rnd4 Audric Estime
The board had Audric Estime higher than the Round 4 slot, and the running back fell to them anyway. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick147 Rnd5 Cole Bishop
They paid a round early for Cole Bishop in the 147th overall pick, more than the board wanted. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick188 Rnd6 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson at the 188th pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. The roster fit checks out.
Pick231 Rnd7 Brevyn Spann-Ford
Somehow Brevyn Spann-Ford was still sitting there in No. 231, and they pounced on premier tight end value. A minor itch, scratched.
