Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Bears won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B+.

Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Bears came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close. The bottom line is a respectable B+.

Reaching for Robinson left real value on the table behind him. The Zinter pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In No. 6 they get a blindside protector. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick11 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In pick 11 they get a No. 1 receiver, reach and all. A real need, handled.
Pick26 Rnd1 Tyler Nubin
In the 26th pick they get a centerfielder for the defense at fair value. More want than need.
Pick39 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson at pick No. 39 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick47 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
The board had cheaper options than Jackson Powers-Johnson at the 47th overall pick, and it noticed. It fills a real need, too.
Pick66 Rnd3 Trey Benson
A reach on Trey Benson in the Round 3 slot; the board had better options right there. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick75 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
A premium they did not need to pay, Malachi Corley a notch or two before his time. The roster fit checks out.
Pick110 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
They let Zak Zinter come to them and pounced at slot 110. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick127 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at the 127th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick130 Rnd4 Javion Cohen
A conviction pick on Javion Cohen at slot 130 that the board grades a round light. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
