Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesB+ FutureC+
The Bears drew a line under the quarterback search with Daniels: B.

The search is over. The Bears handed the keys to Jayden Daniels, and the whole operation now runs on his development. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

A whole weekend of picks and linebacker is somehow still a want. The Hadden steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The cost of the Oladapo reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In pick No. 7 they get their guy under center for the next decade at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick9 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In the Round 1 slot they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
Kool-Aid McKinstry at slot 34 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick38 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
They paid sticker price for Chris Braswell in the 38th overall pick, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick40 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat in pick 40 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick58 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy at No. 58 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick75 Rnd3 Xavier Legette
Good price on Xavier Legette in the 75th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick121 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
No drama and no debate, Theo Johnson went about where he belonged in Round 4, Pick 21. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick123 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo at Round 4, Pick 23 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick136 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
By-the-book stuff, Jarrian Jones at No. 136 squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick145 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at pick No. 145 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick180 Rnd6 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden at the 180th pick is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
