Draft Grade — Bears
Overall C+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureF
Quarterback settled, Williams in the fold, and a C+ for the Bears.

The Bears bet big and early on Tanor Bortolini, 64 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

They have staked the next five years on Caleb Williams, which is the only story that really matters here. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up. They will answer for taking OLB-EDGE early while running back and linebacker went begging.

The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In pick No. 1 they get a long-term answer under center at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the 9th pick they get a No. 1 receiver. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
Fair-plus on T.J. Tampa, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick85 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
A straight-up fair deal on Dominick Puni at No. 85, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick96 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick114 Rnd4 Javon Solomon
A surprising call. With running back and linebacker still to address, they spent the 114th overall pick on Javon Solomon, an OLB-EDGE they were not short of.
Pick122 Rnd4 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan at the 122nd overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick123 Rnd4 Tanor Bortolini
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tanor Bortolini in pick 123, miles early. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick184 Rnd6 Grayson Murphy
Grayson Murphy at Round 6, Pick 9 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick198 Rnd6 Erick All
They took Erick All at par in slot 198, which is nothing to complain about. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick247 Rnd7 Jowon Briggs
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jowon Briggs. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
