Draft Grade — Bears
Overall
A-
ValueB
NeedB
TradesA+
FutureB+
The Bears let Nix fall into their laps, and walked away with a A-. The real work happened on the phones. The Bears fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with. Little to argue with here, and the A- says so.
Nix falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The veteran additions, Stefon Diggs chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.
Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Jared Verse and all.
Pick Analysis
Pick16
Rnd1
Jared Verse
In No. 16 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick29
Rnd1
Jordan Morgan
In the 29th overall pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick39
Rnd2
Adonai Mitchell
No edge and no loss on Adonai Mitchell in the 39th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick47
Rnd2
Bo Nix
Bo Nix at slot 47 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The roster fit checks out.
Pick57
Rnd2
T.J. Tampa
They let T.J. Tampa come to them and pounced at pick No. 57. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick61
Rnd2
T'Vondre Sweat
They did well to land T'Vondre Sweat in pick 61, just ahead of his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick75
Rnd3
Javon Bullard
A quiet steal in pick 75: Javon Bullard for less than the market said. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick88
Rnd3
TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick99
Rnd3
Christian Mahogany
A tidy bit of business in Round 3, Pick 36, where Christian Mahogany graded well above the range. It fills a real need, too.
Pick110
Rnd4
Gabriel Murphy
Gabriel Murphy at slot 110 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick125
Rnd4
Isaiah Adams
Nothing to complain about; Isaiah Adams went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick127
Rnd4
Dallin Holker
They took Dallin Holker at par in pick No. 127, which is nothing to complain about. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick129
Rnd4
Nehemiah Pritchett
A straight-up fair deal on Nehemiah Pritchett at the 129th pick, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick146
Rnd5
Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden at the 146th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick186
Rnd6
Jacob Cowing
A slide stopped in slot 186, with Jacob Cowing worth more than the price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick193
Rnd6
Ben Bywater
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Ben Bywater at the 193rd overall pick is the proof. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick232
Rnd7
Jason Henderson
They paid sticker price for Jason Henderson in Round 7, Pick 12, and that is fine. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick236
Rnd7
Miles Frazier
Miles Frazier in the Round 7 slot is fair value, right on his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick244
Rnd7
Xavier Restrepo
They will replay Xavier Restrepo at pick No. 244 for years; that is how good the value is. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
