Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureC+
The Bears found their guy under center in Williams: D-.

The Bears bet big and early on Tykee Smith, 30 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

Whatever Caleb Williams becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
By-the-book stuff, Caleb Williams at slot 1 squarely in line with his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick20 Rnd1 Xavier Legette
In pick No. 20 they get a matchup problem out wide, reach and all. A real need, handled.
Pick27 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get a long-term starter on the line, a steep price for the projection.
Pick35 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
They paid sticker price for Chop Robinson in the 35th overall pick, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick66 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Tykee Smith well ahead of where he belonged. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick75 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
They took Cooper Beebe at par in the Round 3 slot, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
Pick123 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine at No. 123 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick143 Rnd5 Logan Lee
They paid a round early for Logan Lee in the 143rd overall pick, more than the board wanted. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
