Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesC+ FutureB
The Bears cashed the board's mistake on Farmer: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Joshua Farmer tumbling to the Bears in No. 149 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Interior defensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In pick 10 they get a bell-cow for the offense, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick39 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
The board had Jalon Walker higher than the Round 2 slot, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick44 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
No edge and no loss on Xavier Watts in the 44th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick72 Rnd3 Marcus Mbow
They barely believed it either: Marcus Mbow still on the board at the 72nd pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick149 Rnd5 Joshua Farmer
They robbed the room for Joshua Farmer here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick197 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues at No. 197 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick211 Rnd6 Luke Lachey
They will replay Luke Lachey at pick No. 211 for years; that is how good the value is. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick235 Rnd7 Clay Webb
A reach on Clay Webb in slot 235; the board had better options right there. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick242 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
Isaac TeSlaa slipping to the 242nd overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick249 Rnd7 Sam Brown
Sam Brown is a better player than pick 249 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
