Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
Grand theft in pick No. 66: the Bears steal Burke and grade out a A-.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Bears, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. A near-flawless weekend of work, and a A- to cap it.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.

The kind of weekend a front office frames and hangs on the wall.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In pick 3 they get a long-term starter on the line at fair value.
Pick35 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
Good price on Keon Coleman in Round 2, Pick 3, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick66 Rnd3 Denzel Burke
Denzel Burke in No. 66 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick75 Rnd3 Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson in the Round 3 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick103 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Blake Fisher. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick110 Rnd4 Spencer Rattler
They read the board right and Spencer Rattler was the payoff at the 110th pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick111 Rnd4 Cooper Beebe
No drama and no debate, Cooper Beebe went about where he belonged in No. 111. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick146 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson at pick No. 146 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick224 Rnd7 Omar Speights
They let Omar Speights come to them and pounced at the 224th pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick232 Rnd7 Isaiah Davis
The board had Isaiah Davis higher than the 232nd overall pick, and the running back fell to them anyway. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
