Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesB FutureA+
More right than wrong for the Bears, and a B+ to prove it.

You can draft well and still miss the point. The Bears did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to edge rusher, which was the need that mattered most. They moved the roster forward and banked a B+ for it.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Travis. The Marvin Mims Jr. pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In No. 9 they get a weapon on the perimeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick12 Rnd1 Jer'Zhan Newton
In slot 12 they get a run-stuffing presence up front at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick75 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
By-the-book stuff, Cooper Beebe at the 75th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick110 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
A clean, defensible pick in pick 110 with a little surplus value in Dominick Puni. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick122 Rnd4 Johnny Dixon
Johnny Dixon at the 122nd overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick146 Rnd5 Jordan Travis
Jordan Travis slipping to Round 5, Pick 10 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It fills a real need, too.
