Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Henderson should have been long gone. The Bears pounced, and earned a B.

Thirty-one other rooms let TreVeyon Henderson slide, and the Bears were the ones holding the card at the 142nd pick. Highway robbery. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In Round 1, Pick 9 they get a problem off the edge at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick37 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
No edge and no loss on Tyler Booker in pick No. 37; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick40 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
They barely believed it either: Malaki Starks still on the board at slot 40. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick71 Rnd3 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren in No. 71 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick142 Rnd5 TreVeyon Henderson
The board fumbled TreVeyon Henderson all the way to the Round 5 slot, and they scooped it up. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick200 Rnd6 Jared Wilson
A straight-up fair deal on Jared Wilson at pick 200, value and slot in agreement. The roster fit checks out.
Pick232 Rnd7 Logan Parr
Logan Parr at the 232nd overall pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick246 Rnd7 Jack Kiser
Circle this one: Jack Kiser at the 246th pick is a fall that decides a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
