Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Bears and Perkins Jr.: B.

Somebody in pick No. 203 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Bears sat still while Harold Perkins Jr., the No. 133 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.

They will need Burks to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. A whole weekend of picks and cornerback is somehow still a want.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In Round 1, Pick 9 they get a disruptor off the edge. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
They paid sticker price for Tyler Booker in the 35th pick, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick41 Rnd2 Landon Jackson
A quiet steal in the 41st overall pick: Landon Jackson for less than the market said. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick73 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts at slot 73 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick146 Rnd5 Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton at the Round 5 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick203 Rnd6 Harold Perkins Jr.
Harold Perkins Jr. at pick 203 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick227 Rnd7 Jared Wilson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jared Wilson at No. 227. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick244 Rnd7 Deion Burks
They reached a country mile for Deion Burks at pick No. 244, and the board is aghast. A need, and now a little less of one.
