Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueB NeedA- TradesA+ FutureB-
Nobody dealt better than the Bears this weekend: B+.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Bears, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend.

Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Chris Jones pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

Scourton falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 James Pearce Jr.
In the 10th pick they get juice off the edge. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick41 Rnd2 Nic Scourton
A tidy bit of business in pick 41, where Nic Scourton graded well above the range. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick72 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson slid further than he should have, and the Round 3 slot is lovely value for the offensive lineman. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick81 Rnd3 Devin Neal
Devin Neal in the 81st overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
