Draft Grade — Bears

FutureA+
The Bears won the night they stopped Mondon Jr. from sliding. Grade: B+. When a board-topper like Smael Mondon Jr. slides to Round 6, Pick 35, you do not overthink it, and the Bears did not. A dependable weekend that grades out a B+.
Reaching for Walker left real value on the table behind him. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Tyler Booker
In No. 30 they get an anchor for the offensive line, though they paid up to get him.
Pick39
Rnd2
Deone Walker
A big swing on Deone Walker at Round 2, Pick 7, well ahead of any board in the building. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick41
Rnd2
Tyler Warren
A tight end of that caliber at the Round 2 slot is the definition of value, full stop. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick59
Rnd2
Tate Ratledge
A premium they did not need to pay, Tate Ratledge a notch or two before his time. It fills a real need, too.
Pick72
Rnd3
Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts in the 72nd pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick108
Rnd4
Jake Majors
They paid sticker price for Jake Majors in the 108th overall pick, and that is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick149
Rnd5
Quinshon Judkins
They barely believed it either: Quinshon Judkins still on the board at pick No. 149. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick193
Rnd6
Jonah Monheim
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Jonah Monheim in slot 193, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick197
Rnd6
Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey in the Round 6 slot is fair value, right on his grade. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick213
Rnd6
Smael Mondon Jr.
The board fumbled Smael Mondon Jr. all the way to Round 6, Pick 35, and they scooped it up. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick235
Rnd7
Willie Lampkin
You do not let an offensive lineman like Willie Lampkin reach No. 235 and blink. They did not. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick242
Rnd7
Shilo Sanders
A reach for Shilo Sanders in slot 242; a little patience would have been rewarded. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
