Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureA
Williams is the Bears' new face under center. Grade: D.

The phones were a trap the Bears kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D.

So much rides on Caleb Williams that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. Reaching for Bell left real value on the table behind him. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Jones.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In No. 1 they get the face of the franchise. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick23 Rnd1 Troy Franklin
In pick No. 23 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick43 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
A reasonable price with a little left over, Chop Robinson in pick 43. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick74 Rnd3 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat at Round 3, Pick 10 is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick75 Rnd3 Caelen Carson
Caelen Carson is a better player than the 75th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick85 Rnd3 Bucky Irving
Bucky Irving at the Round 3 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick110 Rnd4 Jacob Cowing
Jacob Cowing slid further than he should have, and the 110th overall pick is lovely value for the wide receiver. It fills a real need, too.
Pick120 Rnd4 Tykee Smith
You do not let a safety like Tykee Smith reach slot 120 and blink. They did not. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jaheim Bell
A reach for Jaheim Bell in pick 126; a little patience would have been rewarded. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick127 Rnd4 Javon Foster
Javon Foster at the 127th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick146 Rnd5 James Williams
James Williams slipping to No. 146 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick163 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
Nehemiah Pritchett in slot 163 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick186 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
The board had Curtis Jacobs higher than the Round 6 slot, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick232 Rnd7 Myles Jones
Taking Myles Jones in Round 7, Pick 12 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
