Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureC+
The Bears cashed the board's mistake on Edwards: B.

The Bears spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Donovan Edwards, the No. 184 name on the board, in No. 233.

Monheim has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In pick 10 they get a long-term starter on the line. A real need, handled.
Pick16 Rnd1 Shemar Stewart
In the 16th overall pick they get a bendy edge with upside at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick72 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
Omarr Norman-Lott in Round 3, Pick 8 is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick114 Rnd4 Jonah Monheim
A wild overpay on Jonah Monheim in the Round 4 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The roster fit checks out.
Pick233 Rnd7 Donovan Edwards
Taking Donovan Edwards in pick No. 233 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick240 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
Nothing to complain about; Teddye Buchanan went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
