Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesB+ FutureB
The Bears finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B.

The Bears spent the pick that matters most on Caleb Williams, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

They are betting Rouse proves the room right and everyone else wrong. That running back hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
Caleb Williams at slot 1 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick13 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In the 13th pick they get a double-digit-sack hope. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick75 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
They jumped the gun on Sedrick Van Pran, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick77 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
They liked Malachi Corley enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 77. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick110 Rnd4 Cooper Beebe
No drama and no debate, Cooper Beebe went about where he belonged in the 110th overall pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick127 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
They let Kris Abrams-Draine come to them and pounced at pick No. 127. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick146 Rnd5 Cole Bishop
By-the-book stuff, Cole Bishop at the Round 5 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick186 Rnd6 DeWayne Carter
DeWayne Carter at No. 186 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick232 Rnd7 Walter Rouse
They talked themselves into Walter Rouse at pick No. 232, and the board did not agree. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
