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

The Bears treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending the 126th overall pick on Patrick Payton a full 56 spots early.

The Hubbard pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Nyck Harbor
In slot 21 they get a weapon on the perimeter, even if it was a touch early. A real need, handled.
Pick48 Rnd2 Deontae Lawson
They robbed the room for Deontae Lawson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick63 Rnd2 Makhi Hughes
They let Makhi Hughes come to them and pounced at pick 63. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick80 Rnd3 Bud Clark
A tidy bit of business in the Round 3 slot, where Bud Clark graded well above the range. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick86 Rnd3 Jalon Kilgore
Nice patience on Jalon Kilgore, who had no business lasting to the 86th pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick94 Rnd3 Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles in No. 94 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The roster fit checks out.
Pick121 Rnd4 DeMonte Capehart
They went early on DeMonte Capehart in pick 121, and the value did not follow. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick126 Rnd4 Patrick Payton
They reached into another round for Patrick Payton, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick143 Rnd5 Bryce Foster
Bryce Foster at the 143rd pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick155 Rnd5 Bray Hubbard
You do not let a safety like Bray Hubbard reach the Round 5 slot and blink. They did not. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick161 Rnd5 Le'Veon Moss
Le'Veon Moss in Round 5, Pick 23 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick170 Rnd5 Xavier Nwankpa
Xavier Nwankpa in pick No. 170 is fair value, right on his grade. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick194 Rnd6 Barion Brown
Nothing to complain about; Barion Brown went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick229 Rnd7 Tony Grimes
A reach on Tony Grimes in the 229th overall pick; the board had better options right there. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick233 Rnd7 Tosh Baker
A conviction pick on Tosh Baker at the 233rd overall pick that the board grades a round light. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick235 Rnd7 Ethan Onianwa
The board had cheaper options than Ethan Onianwa at the 235th pick, and it noticed. It fills a real need, too.
Pick244 Rnd7 Riley Mahlman
Riley Mahlman in pick 244 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick248 Rnd7 James Williams
James Williams at Round 7, Pick 32 is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
