Draft Grade — Bears

FutureA+
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Bears to a D. The Bears did not so much draft Ben Sinnott as overpay for him, 41 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. It grades a D, and the process earned it.
The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Driskell. The Bears paired the rookies with proven help, Budda Baker leading the way.
Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
Keon Coleman
In No. 27 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick33
Rnd2
Bralen Trice
No edge and no loss on Bralen Trice in the 33rd pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick34
Rnd2
Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette in pick 34 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick41
Rnd2
J.J. McCarthy
J.J. McCarthy in the Round 2 slot is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick43
Rnd2
Patrick Paul
They paid sticker price for Patrick Paul in slot 43, and that is fine. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick56
Rnd2
Jackson Powers-Johnson
They did well to land Jackson Powers-Johnson in the 56th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick74
Rnd3
Ricky Pearsall
A clean, defensible pick in slot 74 with a little surplus value in Ricky Pearsall. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick75
Rnd3
Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick76
Rnd3
McKinnley Jackson
McKinnley Jackson at pick 76 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick90
Rnd3
Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks in pick No. 90 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick102
Rnd4
Jacob Cowing
A straight-up fair deal on Jacob Cowing at No. 102, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick104
Rnd4
Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott in the 104th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick110
Rnd4
Michael Pratt
Good price on Michael Pratt in the 110th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It fills a real need, too.
Pick111
Rnd4
Darius Robinson
A reach for Darius Robinson in Round 4, Pick 11; a little patience would have been rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick114
Rnd4
Kris Abrams-Draine
They jumped the gun on Kris Abrams-Draine, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick123
Rnd4
Braelon Allen
A wild overpay on Braelon Allen in No. 123, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick129
Rnd4
Cedric Gray
By-the-book stuff, Cedric Gray at the 129th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick149
Rnd5
Jaylen Wright
Jaylen Wright at pick 149 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick184
Rnd6
Jaylin Simpson
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Jaylin Simpson in Round 6, Pick 9, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick188
Rnd6
Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett at the Round 6 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick225
Rnd7
Ethan Driskell
They robbed the room for Ethan Driskell here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
