Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesC+ FutureB
Grand theft in Round 6, Pick 27: the Bears steal Mondon Jr. and grade out a B.

The Bears did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Smael Mondon Jr. fell into the 202nd overall pick. No fireworks, but a solid B.

The Griffith reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

Job largely done: interior defensive lineman settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Mason Graham
No drama and no debate, Mason Graham went about where he belonged in the 9th pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick36 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori in No. 36 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick45 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker slipping to the Round 2 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick73 Rnd3 Tyler Warren
Circle this one: Tyler Warren at slot 73 is a fall that decides a draft. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick146 Rnd5 Nicholas Singleton
The board fumbled Nicholas Singleton all the way to pick 146, and they scooped it up. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick168 Rnd5 Jake Slaughter
A tidy little value on Jake Slaughter in Round 5, Pick 30, a step better than break-even. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick202 Rnd6 Smael Mondon Jr.
Taking Smael Mondon Jr. in the 202nd overall pick is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick209 Rnd6 Logan Jones
They will replay Logan Jones at pick No. 209 for years; that is how good the value is. It fills a real need, too.
Pick228 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith at slot 228 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick244 Rnd7 Xzavier Henderson
Xzavier Henderson in the 244th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
