Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueA NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Bears let Campbell fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Jihaad Campbell at the 200th overall pick is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped cornerback, which is a strange place to end up. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the cornerback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In the 9th overall pick they get a bendy edge with upside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick37 Rnd2 Ashton Jeanty
Ashton Jeanty at Round 2, Pick 5 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick40 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
Walter Nolen at No. 40 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick71 Rnd3 Wyatt Milum
Wyatt Milum in the Round 3 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick142 Rnd5 Dylan Fairchild
Steal is underselling it; Dylan Fairchild at pick 142 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick200 Rnd6 Jihaad Campbell
Somehow Jihaad Campbell was still sitting there in the 200th pick, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick232 Rnd7 Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore at slot 232 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick247 Rnd7 Jake Majors
Circle this one: Jake Majors at pick No. 247 is a fall that decides a draft. A need, and now a little less of one.
