Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA
Larceny in No. 75 lands the Bears a A-, Latham and all.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Bears watched JC Latham slide 57 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. This is how you run a draft, and the A- reflects it.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. With interior defensive lineman, cornerback and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on safety is the choice that costs them.

They will need Allen to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In the 11th pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick30 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In pick No. 30 they get a double-digit-sack hope, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick42 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
They let Kamren Kinchens come to them and pounced at pick 42. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick75 Rnd3 JC Latham
They barely believed it either: JC Latham still on the board at the 75th overall pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick111 Rnd4 Ainias Smith
They paid sticker price for Ainias Smith in slot 111, and that is fine. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick123 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Cole Bishop adds a safety and leaves interior defensive lineman, cornerback and other spots untouched.
Pick143 Rnd5 Braelon Allen
They paid up for Braelon Allen at the Round 5 slot when waiting would have done the job. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
