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

Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Bears came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close.

The linebacker hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Bullard.

Every board in the league had Powers-Johnson lower, and that gap is the story.

Few war rooms will sleep better than this one tonight.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the Round 1 slot they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value.
Pick16 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In Round 1, Pick 16 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick40 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A reach for Jackson Powers-Johnson in pick 40; a little patience would have been rewarded. It fills a real need, too.
Pick75 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Javon Bullard at the 75th pick. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick78 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
No drama and no debate, Cooper Beebe went about where he belonged in No. 78. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick81 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil in slot 81 is fair value, right on his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick111 Rnd4 Leonard Taylor III
No edge and no loss on Leonard Taylor III in the 111th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick123 Rnd4 Will Shipley
They paid a round early for Will Shipley in pick No. 123, more than the board wanted. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick143 Rnd5 Jaheim Bell
Jaheim Bell at the Round 5 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the tight end. A minor itch, scratched.
