Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Bears did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with LaDarius Henderson at the 225th overall pick, a reach of 23 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

The linebacker spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Hadden.

Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Good work on the whole, with linebacker the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Marvin Harrison Jr.. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick4 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
In pick 4 they get a security blanket over the middle. More want than need.
Pick68 Rnd3 Blake Corum
A straight-up fair deal on Blake Corum at No. 68, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick104 Rnd4 Kiran Amegadjie
No drama and no debate, Kiran Amegadjie went about where he belonged in Round 4, Pick 4. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick132 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
A conviction pick on Darius Robinson at the Round 4 slot that the board grades a round light. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick141 Rnd5 T.J. Sanders
T.J. Sanders in slot 141 is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick182 Rnd6 Kamal Hadden
Value with a capital V on Kamal Hadden in slot 182, a genuine coup. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick225 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
They reached into another round for LaDarius Henderson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
