Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Bears won the night they stopped Judkins from sliding. Grade: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Quinshon Judkins at the Round 6 slot is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

The Greene III pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the cornerback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 James Pearce Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a premier pass rusher. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick40 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
A quiet steal in pick No. 40: Tate Ratledge for less than the market said. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick48 Rnd2 Earnest Greene III
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Earnest Greene III. The roster fit checks out.
Pick85 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
They jumped the gun on Alfred Collins, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick121 Rnd4 Jake Majors
The board fumbled Jake Majors all the way to Round 4, Pick 20, and they scooped it up. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick154 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A reach for Dont'e Thornton Jr. in slot 154; a little patience would have been rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick204 Rnd6 Quinshon Judkins
Taking Quinshon Judkins in pick 204 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick228 Rnd7 Barrett Carter
Barrett Carter in the 228th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick235 Rnd7 Kevin Winston Jr.
Circle this one: Kevin Winston Jr. at slot 235 is a fall that decides a draft. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick243 Rnd7 Logan Parr
Somehow Logan Parr was still sitting there in Round 7, Pick 29, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
