Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesC FutureB-
The Bears won the night they stopped Bassa from sliding. Grade: B-.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Bears were there to profit. Jeffrey Bassa, the No. 122 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick 185. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

If Ouzts pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the 15th pick they get a seam-stretching tight end. Need was not the driver here.
Pick39 Rnd2 Benjamin Morrison
No edge and no loss on Benjamin Morrison in Round 2, Pick 7; it is a wash and a sensible one. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick41 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
No drama and no debate, Xavier Watts went about where he belonged in pick No. 41. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick72 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
Kaleb Johnson at the Round 3 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick123 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
Hollin Pierce at slot 123 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick148 Rnd5 Jaylin Noel
They barely believed it either: Jaylin Noel still on the board at the 148th overall pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick185 Rnd6 Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa in pick 185 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick233 Rnd7 Tahj Brooks
They will replay Tahj Brooks at No. 233 for years; that is how good the value is. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick240 Rnd7 Robbie Ouzts
Robbie Ouzts at Round 7, Pick 24 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
