Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesB FutureB
The Bears robbed the room for Ransom. Final grade: B.

Call it larceny. Lathan Ransom sat on the board until slot 148, and the Bears did not need to be asked twice.

If Vann pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

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

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Will Campbell
No drama and no debate, Will Campbell went about where he belonged in slot 12. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick39 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
They liked TreVeyon Henderson enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 39. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tre Harris
Tre Harris at pick 41 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick72 Rnd3 Azareye'h Thomas
Value with a capital V on Azareye'h Thomas in the 72nd overall pick, a genuine coup. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick76 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
They did well to land Omarr Norman-Lott in the 76th pick, just ahead of his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick148 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
Lathan Ransom in Round 5, Pick 10 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick149 Rnd5 Riley Leonard
They will replay Riley Leonard at pick No. 149 for years; that is how good the value is. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick233 Rnd7 Davin Vann
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Davin Vann well ahead of where he belonged. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick240 Rnd7 Shemar James
A straight-up fair deal on Shemar James at the Round 7 slot, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
