Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB+
The Bears turned the phones into found money: B+.

Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Bears came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close. It nets out to a B+, which feels about right.

For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Newton pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In Round 1, Pick 4 they get a No. 1 receiver. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick10 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In No. 10 they get a building block for the line at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick20 Rnd1 Nate Wiggins
In slot 20 they get a potential shutdown corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick36 Rnd2 Leonard Taylor III
Leonard Taylor III in the 36th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick71 Rnd3 Josh Newton
Josh Newton is a better player than the Round 3 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick74 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
By-the-book stuff, Christian Haynes at the 74th pick squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick110 Rnd4 J. Michael Sturdivant
A quiet steal in pick No. 110: J. Michael Sturdivant for less than the market said. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick126 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
A tidy little value on Khyree Jackson in pick 126, a step better than break-even. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick147 Rnd5 Mike Sainristil
A slide stopped in pick 147, with Mike Sainristil worth more than the price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick188 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones at the 188th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick231 Rnd7 J.J. Weaver
J.J. Weaver at No. 231 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
