Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesC+ FutureB-
The Bears let Brooks fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

The board owed the Bears one, and it paid up: Tahj Brooks, the No. 118 name on the board, sitting there at pick 228 like a gift left on the doorstep.

Reaching for Nelson left real value on the table behind him. The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In slot 9 they get a load in the middle. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick36 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
By-the-book stuff, Tyler Booker at No. 36 squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick40 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
A real head-scratcher, JT Tuimoloau in the Round 2 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick86 Rnd3 Jack Nelson
They reached into another round for Jack Nelson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick135 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
They will replay Kevin Winston Jr. at Round 4, Pick 34 for years; that is how good the value is. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick146 Rnd5 Jaylin Noel
Jaylin Noel in pick No. 146 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick228 Rnd7 Tahj Brooks
A running back of that caliber at the 228th pick is the definition of value, full stop. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
