Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesC- FutureA
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Bears.

The Bears torched the value chart for Shaun Dolac, taking him 99 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

They banked enough surplus on Noel to cover a lot of smaller sins. The Dallas Turner deal gives the class an established piece to lean on. The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.

They went 8 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
Pick21 Rnd1 Omarion Hampton
In the Round 1 slot they get a bell-cow for the offense, even if it was a touch early. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick24 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In No. 24 they get a seam-stretching tight end. More want than need.
Pick55 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
They read the board right and Xavier Watts was the payoff at Round 2, Pick 23. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick72 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
They did well to land Donovan Jackson in pick No. 72, just ahead of his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick86 Rnd3 Jordan Burch
Jordan Burch in slot 86 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick97 Rnd3 Jaylin Noel
They will replay Jaylin Noel at the 97th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick125 Rnd4 Jacob Parrish
Nothing to complain about; Jacob Parrish went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick139 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
No drama and no debate, Tyler Shough went about where he belonged in the Round 5 slot. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick149 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
A straight-up fair deal on Bhayshul Tuten at the 149th pick, value and slot in agreement. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick158 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
A wild overpay on JJ Pegues in pick 158, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick233 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
They paid sticker price for Cam Jackson in the 233rd overall pick, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick240 Rnd7 Shaun Dolac
Shaun Dolac in slot 240 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
