Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Bears let Trice fall into their laps, and walked away with a A.

The Bears spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Bralen Trice, the No. 37 name on the board, in pick 69.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back.

They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Bottom line, with Joe Alt leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In the 5th overall pick they get an anchor for the offensive line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick9 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
Malik Nabers at pick 9 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick37 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
Taking Cooper DeJean in the 37th pick is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick69 Rnd3 Bralen Trice
They robbed the room for Bralen Trice here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick75 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
Christian Haynes at pick No. 75 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick110 Rnd4 Leonard Taylor III
They took Leonard Taylor III at par in slot 110, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick122 Rnd4 Malik Washington
Malik Washington in Round 4, Pick 22 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick146 Rnd5 Drake Nugent
Drake Nugent in No. 146 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
