Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
Grand theft in Round 5, Pick 10: the Bears steal Neal and grade out a B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Bears watched Devin Neal slide 66 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

For all the activity, cornerback went untouched, which is hard to explain. The cost of the Tuimoloau reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In slot 12 they get a run-stuffing presence up front at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick39 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
They paid a round early for JT Tuimoloau in No. 39, more than the board wanted. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
They read the board right and Tate Ratledge was the payoff at the 41st pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick72 Rnd3 Tyler Warren
Somehow Tyler Warren was still sitting there in pick 72, and they pounced on premier tight end value. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick76 Rnd3 Tez Johnson
The board had cheaper options than Tez Johnson at the Round 3 slot, and it noticed. The roster fit checks out.
Pick147 Rnd5 Devin Neal
Steal is underselling it; Devin Neal at Round 5, Pick 10 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
