Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
Milum should have been long gone. The Bears pounced, and earned a D.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Bears did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high.

The linebacker hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Getting Milum where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 JT Tuimoloau
No drama and no debate, JT Tuimoloau went about where he belonged in pick 20. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick33 Rnd2 Emery Jones
A straight-up fair deal on Emery Jones at pick No. 33, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick52 Rnd2 Jabbar Muhammad
Circle this one: Jabbar Muhammad at No. 52 is a fall that decides a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick59 Rnd2 Aeneas Peebles
Fair-plus on Aeneas Peebles, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick65 Rnd3 Luke Lachey
A tidy little value on Luke Lachey in the Round 3 slot, a step better than break-even. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick84 Rnd3 Jaeden Roberts
They paid sticker price for Jaeden Roberts in Round 3, Pick 20, and that is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick110 Rnd4 Will Sheppard
Will Sheppard in pick 110 is fair value, right on his grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick116 Rnd4 Antwane Wells Jr.
Good price on Antwane Wells Jr. in the 116th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The roster fit checks out.
Pick129 Rnd5 Tyler Baron
Nothing to complain about; Tyler Baron went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick148 Rnd5 Wyatt Milum
Wyatt Milum in pick No. 148 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick180 Rnd6 Damien Martinez
Taking Damien Martinez in No. 180 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick182 Rnd6 Aubrey Burks
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Aubrey Burks at the 182nd overall pick is the proof. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick187 Rnd6 Tim Smith
Tim Smith in Round 6, Pick 27 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
