Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureA
A franchise passer in Maye headlines a D weekend for the Bears.

Some picks age like wine; Mason McCormick at Round 4, Pick 11 will need to, sitting 48 spots clear of his grade. The board pushed back all weekend, and the D is the result.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. Drake Maye gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Landing Coleman that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In the 6th pick they get their guy under center for the next decade. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In No. 9 they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick20 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In pick 20 they get a bendy edge with upside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick39 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
Tyler Nubin at the Round 2 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick47 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
A reach on Zach Frazier in slot 47; the board had better options right there. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick51 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul in Round 2, Pick 19 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick75 Rnd3 Keon Coleman
The board fumbled Keon Coleman all the way to the Round 3 slot, and they scooped it up. The roster fit checks out.
Pick84 Rnd3 Trey Benson
Trey Benson at pick No. 84 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick111 Rnd4 Mason McCormick
They reached a country mile for Mason McCormick at the 111th pick, and the board is aghast. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick123 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott in slot 123 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
