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

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Bears did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high. Put together, it is a D.

They will need Campbell to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

They banked enough surplus on McCoy to cover a lot of smaller sins.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Jermod McCoy
In the 23rd overall pick they get a press-man option on the boundary at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick30 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In No. 30 they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece, even if it was a touch early. A real need, handled.
Pick56 Rnd2 Quincy Rhodes Jr.
They read the board right and Quincy Rhodes Jr. was the payoff at pick 56. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick64 Rnd2 A.J. Haulcy
A.J. Haulcy at the 64th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick87 Rnd3 Eric Singleton Jr.
Eric Singleton Jr. is a better player than slot 87 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick131 Rnd4 Bryce Lance
Bryce Lance in Round 4, Pick 31 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It fills a real need, too.
Pick163 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for DJ Campbell. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick236 Rnd7 Pat Coogan
They talked themselves into Pat Coogan at the Round 7 slot, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick238 Rnd7 Bear Alexander
Bear Alexander at pick No. 238 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
