Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueA+ NeedB+ TradesA- FutureB+
Larceny in the 255th overall pick lands the Bears a A-, McCoy and all.

The board owed the Bears one, and it paid up: Jermod McCoy, the No. 10 name on the board, sitting there at No. 255 like a gift left on the doorstep.

They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work.

Bottom line, with David Bailey leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 David Bailey
In pick 28 they get a premier pass rusher, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 Cashius Howell
Cashius Howell in slot 63 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick106 Rnd4 Mansoor Delane
You do not let a cornerback like Mansoor Delane reach the Round 4 slot and blink. They did not. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick108 Rnd4 Carnell Tate
They will replay Carnell Tate at Round 4, Pick 8 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick129 Rnd4 Kayden McDonald
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Kayden McDonald in No. 129, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick164 Rnd5 Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles in the 164th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick239 Rnd7 Kenyon Sadiq
They robbed the room for Kenyon Sadiq here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick241 Rnd7 Jordyn Tyson
Jordyn Tyson at the 241st overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The roster fit checks out.
Pick255 Rnd7 Jermod McCoy
They barely believed it either: Jermod McCoy still on the board at pick 255. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
