Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesC+ FutureA
Williams is the Bears' new face under center. Grade: B.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Caleb Williams is the Bears' quarterback, full stop. The bottom line is a respectable B.

That Trotter Jr. pick is the receipt they will wave around later. Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game.

The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In Round 1, Pick 1 they get a franchise quarterback. A real need, handled.
Pick25 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
In the 25th pick they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 2 slot with a little surplus value in Xavier Legette. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick75 Rnd3 Adisa Isaac
They barely believed it either: Adisa Isaac still on the board at pick No. 75. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick88 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Circle this one: Cooper Beebe at pick 88 is a fall that decides a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick122 Rnd4 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at the 122nd overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
