Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureB
A franchise passer in Williams headlines a D- weekend for the Bears.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Donovan Edwards at the Round 4 slot is 50 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D-.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. So much rides on Caleb Williams that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through linebacker.

In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In No. 1 they get their quarterback of the future at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick5 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In Round 1, Pick 5 they get a cornerstone up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick40 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
Cooper DeJean at slot 40 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick54 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
Kamren Kinchens at pick No. 54 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick68 Rnd3 Tory Horton
Tory Horton at the 68th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick104 Rnd4 Tyler Davis
Tyler Davis at the 104th overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick105 Rnd4 Donovan Edwards
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Donovan Edwards. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick132 Rnd4 Zion Tupuola-Fetui
Zion Tupuola-Fetui in the 132nd overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
