Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Bears.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Bears took Keaten Wade a full 42 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

That is an offensive lineman worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 LT Overton
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a double-digit-sack hope, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Olaivavega Ioane
They robbed the room for Olaivavega Ioane here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick89 Rnd3 Chandler Rivers
A tidy little value on Chandler Rivers in slot 89, a step better than break-even. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick129 Rnd4 Jakobe Thomas
Nothing to complain about; Jakobe Thomas went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick163 Rnd5 Aaron Anderson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Aaron Anderson at the 163rd overall pick is the proof. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick239 Rnd7 Keaten Wade
A big swing on Keaten Wade at the Round 7 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick241 Rnd7 Kamran James
A real head-scratcher, Kamran James in pick 241 is miles ahead of his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
