Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureD
A passer of the future in Williams, and a D, for the Bears.

Somebody took the Bears to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it.

So much rides on Caleb Williams that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. Henderson has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it. Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and running back is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In pick 1 they get their guy under center for the next decade. A real need, handled.
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In Round 1, Pick 9 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick75 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at slot 75 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick78 Rnd3 Jonah Elliss
A conviction pick on Jonah Elliss at the 78th overall pick that the board grades a round light. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick81 Rnd3 Leonard Taylor III
This one needs a full-page explanation: Leonard Taylor III in the Round 3 slot, miles early. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick109 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
A premium they did not need to pay, Beaux Limmer a notch or two before his time. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick122 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
A reach on Ben Sinnott in the 122nd pick; the board had better options right there. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick224 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
A big swing on LaDarius Henderson at pick No. 224, well ahead of any board in the building. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
