Draft Grade — Bears

FutureB
Williams is the Bears' new face under center. Grade: D. The Bears spent real capital to be 45 picks early on Darius Robinson, and the board is going to hold them to it. A D that will need time and luck to look better.
Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. So much rides on Caleb Williams that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
However the rest shakes out, Corley at that price is a win they earned.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, interior defensive lineman very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
They took Caleb Williams at par in slot 1, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick12
Rnd1
Joe Alt
In the 12th overall pick they get a long-term starter on the line, outstanding value to boot.
Pick34
Rnd2
Brian Thomas Jr.
Brian Thomas Jr. in No. 34 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick36
Rnd2
Tyler Nubin
A tidy little value on Tyler Nubin in pick 36, a step better than break-even. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick75
Rnd3
Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran at pick No. 75 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick76
Rnd3
Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at Round 3, Pick 12 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick101
Rnd4
Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at pick No. 101 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick104
Rnd4
Audric Estime
Fair-plus on Audric Estime, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick111
Rnd4
Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni slipping to No. 111 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick114
Rnd4
Malachi Corley
A wide receiver of that caliber at pick 114 is the definition of value, full stop. The roster fit checks out.
Pick123
Rnd4
Ben Sinnott
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Ben Sinnott well ahead of where he belonged. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick175
Rnd5
Nehemiah Pritchett
They barely believed it either: Nehemiah Pritchett still on the board at Round 5, Pick 39. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick196
Rnd6
Jared Wiley
They reached into another round for Jared Wiley, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
