Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureC+
The Bears got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D-.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Bears would have aced it. Dominic Zvada at pick 241 is 63 spots clear of where he belonged. Put together, it is a D-.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Lew.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, edge rusher very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Lee Hunter
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Lee Hunter. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick34 Rnd2 Max Iheanachor
Max Iheanachor in the 34th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick57 Rnd2 Omar Cooper Jr.
They took Omar Cooper Jr. at par in pick 57, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick60 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
A safety of that caliber at the Round 2 slot is the definition of value, full stop. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick89 Rnd3 Connor Lew
The board fumbled Connor Lew all the way to the 89th pick, and they scooped it up. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick129 Rnd4 Tim Keenan III
Tim Keenan III at Round 4, Pick 29 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick239 Rnd7 Trey Zuhn III
Trey Zuhn III at slot 239 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick241 Rnd7 Dominic Zvada
Dominic Zvada at pick 241 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
