Draft Grade — Bears

The Bears answered their biggest question with Williams. Grade: D. The trade table was where it all came apart. The Bears shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill. Put together, it is a D.
So much rides on Caleb Williams that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. They punted on linebacker, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Berger falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.
The cost of the Van Pran reach is exactly the players who went right after him.
Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and linebacker is still a hole.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
In slot 1 they get a long-term answer under center. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick9
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick 9 they get a weapon on the perimeter, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick43
Rnd2
Jer'Zhan Newton
Taking Jer'Zhan Newton in Round 2, Pick 11 is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick75
Rnd3
Sedrick Van Pran
The board had cheaper options than Sedrick Van Pran at the 75th overall pick, and it noticed. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick116
Rnd4
Zak Zinter
They will replay Zak Zinter at the Round 4 slot for years; that is how good the value is. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick122
Rnd4
Max Melton
Max Melton at No. 122 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick146
Rnd5
Cedric Johnson
A premium they did not need to pay, Cedric Johnson a notch or two before his time. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick211
Rnd6
Josh Proctor
Josh Proctor in the 211th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick255
Rnd7
Jalen Berger
You do not let a running back like Jalen Berger reach pick No. 255 and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
