Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureB-
Quarterback settled, Williams in the fold, and a D- for the Bears.

The Bears looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Aaron Lewis at the 244th overall pick regardless, 44 picks early.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. Caleb Williams is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In slot 1 they get a long-term answer under center at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In pick No. 9 they get a weapon on the perimeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A conviction pick on Jackson Powers-Johnson at pick 43 that the board grades a round light. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick75 Rnd3 Caelen Carson
A tidy bit of business in Round 3, Pick 11, where Caelen Carson graded well above the range. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick110 Rnd4 Jaden Hicks
Nothing to complain about; Jaden Hicks went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick127 Rnd4 Zion Tupuola-Fetui
A real head-scratcher, Zion Tupuola-Fetui in No. 127 is miles ahead of his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick145 Rnd5 Javion Cohen
Javion Cohen in the 145th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick146 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jaylin Simpson. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick186 Rnd6 Isaiah Davis
They did well to land Isaiah Davis in Round 6, Pick 11, just ahead of his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick189 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
By-the-book stuff, De'Corian Clark at the Round 6 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick232 Rnd7 Walter Rouse
Walter Rouse in the 232nd pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It fills a real need, too.
Pick244 Rnd7 Aaron Lewis
Aaron Lewis in pick 244 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
