Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D-
ValueB NeedB- TradesF FutureB-
The Bears found their guy under center in Williams: D-.

Somebody took the Bears to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it. Hard to defend, and the D- reflects that.

Caleb Williams gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

They banked enough surplus on Rosengarten to cover a lot of smaller sins.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In the 1st pick they get a long-term answer under center at fair value.
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the 9th overall pick they get a go-to option on the outside. A real need, handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
They paid sticker price for Xavier Legette in pick 44, and that is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick75 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
Christian Haynes at No. 75 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick77 Rnd3 Zach Frazier
They took Zach Frazier at par in slot 77, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick110 Rnd4 Christian Mahogany
A offensive lineman of that caliber at Round 4, Pick 10 is the definition of value, full stop. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick112 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
A tidy bit of business in the Round 4 slot, where Dominick Puni graded well above the range. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick125 Rnd4 Cam Hart
Cam Hart at pick No. 125 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick146 Rnd5 Kamal Hadden
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kamal Hadden at the 146th pick is the proof. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick186 Rnd6 Aki Ogunbiyi
Aki Ogunbiyi at No. 186 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick232 Rnd7 Roger Rosengarten
They will replay Roger Rosengarten at Round 7, Pick 12 for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
