Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureD
A passer of the future in Williams, and a B-, for the Bears.

The Bears bet big and early on Tanor Bortolini, 119 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

Caleb Williams is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

Adding Tee Higgins by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In the 1st overall pick they get a passer to set the clock by. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick18 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In pick No. 18 they get a press-man option on the boundary at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick52 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at slot 52 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick75 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice in pick 75 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick98 Rnd3 Tanor Bortolini
Tanor Bortolini in No. 98 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick109 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
They paid sticker price for Isaac Guerendo in Round 4, Pick 9, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick121 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
They went early on Theo Johnson in No. 121, and the value did not follow. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
