Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB+ FutureC+
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Bears.

The tape said wait; the Bears did not. Will Kacmarek went at pick 241, a good 75 picks before the board was ready. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

Golday falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

They bet on numbers rather than a single high pick.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick38 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
Dillon Thieneman at Round 2, Pick 6 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick57 Rnd2 Lee Hunter
Nice patience on Lee Hunter, who had no business lasting to the Round 2 slot. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick59 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Caleb Banks at the 59th overall pick is the proof. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick89 Rnd3 Jake Slaughter
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Jake Slaughter in slot 89, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick100 Rnd3 Jake Golday
They will replay Jake Golday at pick 100 for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick129 Rnd4 Davison Igbinosun
They did well to land Davison Igbinosun in pick No. 129, just ahead of his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick163 Rnd5 Kyle Louis
Kyle Louis in Round 5, Pick 25 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick239 Rnd7 Zavion Thomas
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Zavion Thomas at the 239th overall pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick241 Rnd7 Will Kacmarek
Will Kacmarek at pick 241 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
