Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesB+ FutureB-
The Bears won the night they stopped Gordon II from sliding. Grade: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Ollie Gordon II, No. 232, roughly 68 picks past where he belonged. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

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

The Jermaine Eluemunor pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but cornerback.

Pick Analysis
Pick35 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
A tidy little value on Tate Ratledge in No. 35, a step better than break-even. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick37 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
No edge and no loss on Tyler Booker in the 37th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick40 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
Derrick Harmon in slot 40 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick66 Rnd3 Jordan Burch
They reached into another round for Jordan Burch, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick78 Rnd3 Jake Majors
They went early on Jake Majors in pick 78, and the value did not follow. The roster fit checks out.
Pick142 Rnd5 Patrick Bryant
By-the-book stuff, Patrick Bryant at Round 5, Pick 5 squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick200 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed at the Round 6 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick232 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
Somehow Ollie Gordon II was still sitting there in the 232nd pick, and they pounced on premier running back value. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick246 Rnd7 Jared Wilson
They barely believed it either: Jared Wilson still on the board at pick 246. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick248 Rnd7 Tyler Cooper
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tyler Cooper this early at the 248th pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
