Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureB
The Bears drew a line under the quarterback search with Williams: D-.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Bears, and the value they bled adds up to real damage.

Everything downstream of Caleb Williams depends on Caleb Williams, and the building knows it. Rosemy-Jacksaint has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. A whole weekend of picks and linebacker is somehow still a want.

The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In No. 1 they get the arm they will build around at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick9 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In slot 9 they get protection for the quarterback. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Bralen Trice
A clean, defensible pick in the 43rd overall pick with a little surplus value in Bralen Trice. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick75 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
A premium they did not need to pay, Mike Sainristil a notch or two before his time. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick109 Rnd4 Sataoa Laumea
Sataoa Laumea in Round 4, Pick 9 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick110 Rnd4 Dillon Johnson
Dillon Johnson at pick 110 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick122 Rnd4 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
They reached a country mile for Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at pick No. 122, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick146 Rnd5 Justin Rogers
The board had cheaper options than Justin Rogers at the Round 5 slot, and it noticed. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick189 Rnd6 Isaiah Williams
No edge and no loss on Isaiah Williams in pick No. 189; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
