Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Bears turned the phones into found money: A-.

There is reaching, and then there is Julian Pearl at pick No. 146. The Bears jumped the board by 39 and dared it to prove them wrong. They executed a plan and it shows in the A-.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

The Bears paired the rookies with proven help, Davante Adams leading the way.

Bottom line, with Rome Odunze leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In Round 1, Pick 9 they get a No. 1 receiver. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick13 Rnd1 Jer'Zhan Newton
In No. 13 they get an anchor for the defensive front at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson in the 44th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick75 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in slot 75 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick85 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
No drama and no debate, Michael Hall Jr. went about where he belonged in the 85th pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick110 Rnd4 Cam Hart
Cam Hart at pick No. 110 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick122 Rnd4 Luke McCaffrey
They reached into another round for Luke McCaffrey, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick123 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott at the 123rd overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick146 Rnd5 Julian Pearl
They talked themselves into Julian Pearl at pick No. 146, and the board did not agree. Where it fits the depth chart is the real question.
