Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bears checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

The David Walker pick is the one that will follow the Bears into the fall. They took him 93 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

They banked enough surplus on Winston Jr. to cover a lot of smaller sins. They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In slot 10 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A real need, handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
No edge and no loss on Tyler Booker in the 39th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick41 Rnd2 Jared Ivey
A real head-scratcher, Jared Ivey in Round 2, Pick 9 is miles ahead of his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick72 Rnd3 David Walker
They reached into another round for David Walker, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick147 Rnd5 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. in the 147th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick193 Rnd6 Addison West
Addison West at No. 193 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick233 Rnd7 Jared Wilson
Value with a capital V on Jared Wilson in the 233rd overall pick, a genuine coup. The roster fit checks out.
Pick240 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
They reached a country mile for Thor Griffith at the 240th pick, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
