Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Bears bet the future on Williams. The board says B+.

The Bears spent the pick that matters most on Caleb Williams, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it.

The Wiley reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In slot 1 they get their quarterback of the future. A real need, handled.
Pick15 Rnd1 Jer'Zhan Newton
In the 15th pick they get a run-stuffing presence up front at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick46 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
They took Xavier Legette at par in No. 46, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick75 Rnd3 Austin Booker
Austin Booker at the 75th overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick117 Rnd4 Hunter Nourzad
By-the-book stuff, Hunter Nourzad at Round 4, Pick 17 squarely in line with his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick122 Rnd4 Jared Wiley
They paid a round early for Jared Wiley in pick No. 122, more than the board wanted. A minor itch, scratched.
