Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Bears a B+.

The Bears went off the board in a big way for Caden Curry, 58 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

McNeil-Warren at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Peter Woods
In pick No. 29 they get an anchor for the defensive front at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
Emmanuel McNeil-Warren in Round 2, Pick 28 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick74 Rnd3 Caden Curry
Caden Curry in the 74th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick89 Rnd3 Davison Igbinosun
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Davison Igbinosun in the 89th overall pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick111 Rnd4 Jalen Farmer
By-the-book stuff, Jalen Farmer at the Round 4 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick119 Rnd4 Ja'Kobi Lane
Ja'Kobi Lane slid further than he should have, and pick 119 is lovely value for the wide receiver. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick129 Rnd4 Justin Joly
Justin Joly in slot 129 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick158 Rnd5 Zxavian Harris
A straight-up fair deal on Zxavian Harris at the 158th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick239 Rnd7 Fa'alili Fa'amoe
Fa'alili Fa'amoe at the Round 7 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick241 Rnd7 Bryce Foster
This one needs a full-page explanation: Bryce Foster in No. 241, miles early. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
