Draft Grade — Bears
Overall C+
ValueB- NeedB TradesC- FutureC+
The Bears answered their biggest question with Daniels. Grade: C+.

Start where it matters. The Bears took Jayden Daniels to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one. It lands right in the middle: a C+, no more, no less.

They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Corley pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The Matthew Judon deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.

A small leak at the table, if not a fatal one.

Call it incomplete, and check back in a couple of seasons.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In pick 3 they get their quarterback of the future. A real need, handled.
Pick36 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson in slot 36 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick40 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan in No. 40 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick75 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Malachi Corley at Round 3, Pick 11 is the proof. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick100 Rnd3 Mekhi Wingo
A reach on Mekhi Wingo in pick No. 100; the board had better options right there. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick122 Rnd4 Elijah Jones
Good price on Elijah Jones in the 122nd pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
