Draft Grade — Bears

FutureA
The Bears won the night they stopped Skattebo from sliding. Grade: A-. Thirty-one other rooms let Cam Skattebo slide, and the Bears were the ones holding the card at slot 195. Highway robbery. The sum of the weekend is a deserved A-.
Every board in the league had Colby lower, and that gap is the story. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. Leaving cornerback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
Trust the process, because this time the process plainly worked.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Mykel Williams
They took Mykel Williams at par in the 25th pick, which is nothing to complain about. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick39
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
They paid sticker price for Tyler Booker in the Round 2 slot, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick41
Rnd2
Emeka Egbuka
A quiet steal in the 41st overall pick: Emeka Egbuka for less than the market said. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick51
Rnd2
Deone Walker
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Deone Walker. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick76
Rnd3
Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts in pick 76 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick86
Rnd3
Kaleb Johnson
Kaleb Johnson in slot 86 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick89
Rnd3
Jake Majors
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jake Majors. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick115
Rnd4
Quinshon Judkins
They robbed the room for Quinshon Judkins here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick120
Rnd4
Jaeden Roberts
A real head-scratcher, Jaeden Roberts in the 120th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick123
Rnd4
Tez Johnson
Somehow Tez Johnson was still sitting there in the 123rd pick, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick126
Rnd4
Connor Colby
Value said wait; Connor Colby in slot 126 says they were not listening. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick147
Rnd5
Smael Mondon Jr.
They barely believed it either: Smael Mondon Jr. still on the board at No. 147. It fills a real need, too.
Pick157
Rnd5
Lathan Ransom
Lathan Ransom at pick 157 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick173
Rnd5
Miles Frazier
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Miles Frazier well ahead of where he belonged. The roster fit checks out.
Pick193
Rnd6
Jared Wilson
They went early on Jared Wilson in the Round 6 slot, and the value did not follow. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick195
Rnd6
Cam Skattebo
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Cam Skattebo in pick No. 195, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick233
Rnd7
Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey at pick No. 233 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick240
Rnd7
Shilo Sanders
Shilo Sanders at the 240th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick241
Rnd7
Deion Burks
They paid a round early for Deion Burks in the 241st overall pick, more than the board wanted. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
