Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA
Larceny in Round 5, Pick 10 lands the Bears a A-, Moore and all.

The Bears spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Malachi Moore, the No. 95 name on the board, in No. 149.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. Leaving cornerback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.

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

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Mykel Williams and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In the 17th overall pick they get a bendy edge with upside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick39 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
The board had Kenneth Grant higher than slot 39, and the interior defensive lineman fell to them anyway. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
They barely believed it either: Malaki Starks still on the board at the Round 2 slot. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick49 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Tyler Booker at pick No. 49 is the proof. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick53 Rnd2 Kaleb Johnson
Kaleb Johnson in Round 2, Pick 21 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick72 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
No drama and no debate, Tate Ratledge went about where he belonged in pick 72. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick81 Rnd3 Xavier Restrepo
A slide stopped in No. 81, with Xavier Restrepo worth more than the price. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick84 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jihaad Campbell in the 84th pick, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick149 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
They will replay Malachi Moore at the Round 5 slot for years; that is how good the value is. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick197 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed is a better player than the 197th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick234 Rnd7 Trevor Etienne
You do not let a running back like Trevor Etienne reach pick 234 and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick235 Rnd7 Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey at Round 7, Pick 17 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick242 Rnd7 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser at slot 242 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
