TG DRAFTING FOR THEBears
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Bears

Larceny in the 25th overall pick lands the Bears a B, Reese and all. The Bears' one glaring miss is edge rusher, a need they left exactly as they found it.
The Reese value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with interior defensive lineman the one that mattered most.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Arvell Reese
In the Round 1 slot they get the heartbeat of the defense, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick57
Rnd2
Lee Hunter
Lee Hunter at pick No. 57 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick89
Rnd3
Zakee Wheatley
They did well to land Zakee Wheatley in Round 3, Pick 25, just ahead of his grade. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick129
Rnd4
Skyler Gill-Howard
They paid a round early for Skyler Gill-Howard in No. 129, more than the board wanted. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick163
Rnd5
DJ Campbell
A straight-up fair deal on DJ Campbell at slot 163, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick239
Rnd7
Tosh Baker
Tosh Baker in pick 239 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick241
Rnd7
Rueben Owens II
Rueben Owens II in pick 241 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
