Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Bears drew a line under the quarterback search with Penix Jr.: B-.

Start where it matters. The Bears took Michael Penix Jr. to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Lee pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the 1st pick they get a matchup problem out wide. A real need, handled.
Pick9 Rnd1 Michael Penix Jr.
A market-rate quarterback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Michael Penix Jr.. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick75 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
They took Malachi Corley at par in the 75th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick111 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Nothing to complain about; Khyree Jackson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick123 Rnd4 Justin Eboigbe
By-the-book stuff, Justin Eboigbe at pick No. 123 squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick143 Rnd5 Logan Lee
Logan Lee at No. 143 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
