Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Bears left with their quarterback, and a A- to match.

The Bears clearly saw something nobody else did in Solomon Byrd, taking him 94 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. Add it all up and it grades out a clean A-.

Caleb Williams is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. On value alone, Thrash makes the weekend a net positive. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Caleb Williams and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In Round 1, Pick 1 they get a franchise quarterback at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick20 Rnd1 JC Latham
In pick No. 20 they get a blindside protector. A real need, handled.
Pick27 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
In No. 27 they get a go-to option on the outside. A real need, handled.
Pick57 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
They read the board right and Tyler Nubin was the payoff at pick 57. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick75 Rnd3 Troy Franklin
Troy Franklin at the 75th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick87 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul in the Round 3 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick90 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
A wild overpay on Zak Zinter in the Round 3 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick97 Rnd3 Leonard Taylor III
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Leonard Taylor III well ahead of where he belonged. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick122 Rnd4 Myles Cole
They talked themselves into Myles Cole at No. 122, and the board did not agree. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick125 Rnd4 Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo at slot 125 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick186 Rnd6 Jamari Thrash
Circle this one: Jamari Thrash at the 186th pick is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick195 Rnd6 Solomon Byrd
Solomon Byrd in pick No. 195 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick216 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern at pick 216 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick224 Rnd7 Curtis Jacobs
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Curtis Jacobs in Round 7, Pick 4, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
