Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureC+
The Bears fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B.

The Bears treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending the 72nd overall pick on Jay Higgins a full 65 spots early.

Getting Marshall Jr. where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In pick 20 they get protection for the quarterback, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
They paid sticker price for Tyler Booker in No. 39, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick44 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
JT Tuimoloau in pick No. 44 is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick45 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
A slide stopped in slot 45, with Omarion Hampton worth more than the price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick51 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
A straight-up fair deal on Alfred Collins at the Round 2 slot, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick72 Rnd3 Jay Higgins
A wild overpay on Jay Higgins in Round 3, Pick 8, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick89 Rnd3 Denzel Burke
By-the-book stuff, Denzel Burke at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick149 Rnd5 Luke Lachey
This one needs a full-page explanation: Luke Lachey in No. 149, miles early. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick167 Rnd5 Jack Nelson
Steal is underselling it; Jack Nelson at Round 5, Pick 28 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick197 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed is a better player than the 197th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick211 Rnd6 Antwane Wells Jr.
Antwane Wells Jr. at the 211th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The roster fit checks out.
Pick234 Rnd7 Jason Marshall Jr.
Circle this one: Jason Marshall Jr. at slot 234 is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick235 Rnd7 Miles Frazier
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Miles Frazier. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick242 Rnd7 Ja'Corey Brooks
Ja'Corey Brooks at pick 242 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick249 Rnd7 Clay Webb
Clay Webb at pick No. 249 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
