steakhouse101 DRAFTING FOR THEBears
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Bears
Overall

FutureB-
The Bears answered their biggest question with Penix Jr.. Grade: 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. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.
The Moore steal is the beam this whole class leans on. If Ugwu pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.
For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the 1st pick they get a home-run threat at receiver. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick4
Rnd1
Michael Penix Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 4 they get their guy under center for the next decade at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick68
Rnd3
Ladd McConkey
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Ladd McConkey at pick No. 68. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick104
Rnd4
D.J. James
D.J. James at No. 104 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick132
Rnd4
Khyree Jackson
They let Khyree Jackson come to them and pounced at the 132nd overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick141
Rnd5
AJ Barner
They paid sticker price for AJ Barner in slot 141, and that is fine. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick182
Rnd6
Malachi Moore
They barely believed it either: Malachi Moore still on the board at the Round 6 slot. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick225
Rnd7
Brian Ugwu
Brian Ugwu in pick 225 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
