Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureA+
The Bears got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the B-.

The Bears lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again.

For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. They are betting Ransom proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

Landing Lovett that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In pick No. 7 they get a bendy edge with upside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick10 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In the 10th overall pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A real need, handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
They let JT Tuimoloau come to them and pounced at Round 2, Pick 7. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick42 Rnd2 Kalen King
By-the-book stuff, Kalen King at the Round 2 slot squarely in line with his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick68 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran at slot 68 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick74 Rnd3 Brian Thomas Jr.
Brian Thomas Jr. at No. 74 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick104 Rnd4 Tate Ratledge
No drama and no debate, Tate Ratledge went about where he belonged in pick 104. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick132 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
A straight-up fair deal on Beaux Limmer at the 132nd pick, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick141 Rnd5 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
Jamon Dumas-Johnson in the Round 5 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The roster fit checks out.
Pick144 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
A premium they did not need to pay, Lathan Ransom a notch or two before his time. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick182 Rnd6 Jalon Daniels
A reach on Jalon Daniels in pick No. 182; the board had better options right there. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick225 Rnd7 Dominic Lovett
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Dominic Lovett at slot 225. It fills a real need, too.
