Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in the Round 5 slot: the Bears steal Winston Jr. and grade out a B-.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Kevin Winston Jr. got past him. The Bears do not have to explain a thing at pick 148.

They are betting Crenshaw-Dickson proves the room right and everyone else wrong. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
In No. 10 they get a true top target at fair value.
Pick39 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in slot 39 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick41 Rnd2 Kaleb Johnson
Kaleb Johnson at Round 2, Pick 9 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick72 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
By-the-book stuff, Omarr Norman-Lott at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick148 Rnd5 Kevin Winston Jr.
They will replay Kevin Winston Jr. at pick 148 for years; that is how good the value is. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick233 Rnd7 Jackson Hawes
Jackson Hawes at the 233rd pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick240 Rnd7 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson in pick No. 240 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It fills a real need, too.
