mfinch31 DRAFTING FOR THEBears
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Bears
Overall
B-
ValueB-
NeedB+
TradesB-
FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Bears for Sanders: B-. You build a draft on nights like this. Raheim Sanders had no business being available in the 197th pick, and the Bears did the only sane thing and turned in the card. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.
The Barrow Jr. pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick Analysis
Pick10
Rnd1
Will Campbell
In No. 10 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A real need, handled.
Pick39
Rnd2
Malaki Starks
The board had Malaki Starks higher than the 39th pick, and the safety fell to them anyway. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick41
Rnd2
Bradyn Swinson
They talked themselves into Bradyn Swinson at the 41st overall pick, and the board did not agree. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick72
Rnd3
Deone Walker
They let Deone Walker come to them and pounced at pick 72. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick149
Rnd5
Simeon Barrow Jr.
They left a pile of value on the table to take Simeon Barrow Jr. this early at the Round 5 slot. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick197
Rnd6
Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders at Round 6, Pick 19 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
