Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesA+ FutureA
The Bears turned the phones into found money: A-.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Audric Estime, 42 picks early at No. 64. Add it all up and it grades out a clean A-.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Bears paired the rookies with proven help, DeVonta Smith leading the way.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Laiatu Latu and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In the 6th pick they get a premier pass rusher. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick28 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In pick 28 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick38 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
A straight-up fair deal on Keon Coleman at the Round 2 slot, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick51 Rnd2 Zak Zinter
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Zak Zinter. The roster fit checks out.
Pick64 Rnd2 Audric Estime
They reached into another round for Audric Estime, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
