Draft Grade — Bears
Overall C
ValueB+ NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Bears bled value on every deal, hence the C.

Somebody took the Bears to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it. It washes out to a C, no better and no worse.

The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. That Zinter pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

If Jared Verse and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick 4 they get a go-to option on the outside. A real need, handled.
Pick9 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In the 9th overall pick they get a blindside protector at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick27 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In slot 27 they get a bendy edge with upside, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick110 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
A tidy bit of business in Round 4, Pick 10, where Zak Zinter graded well above the range. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick122 Rnd4 Malik Washington
Nothing to complain about; Malik Washington went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick146 Rnd5 Braelon Allen
A conviction pick on Braelon Allen at pick No. 146 that the board grades a round light. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
