Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Bears, and a B to prove it.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Bears took Torricelli Simpkins III a full 31 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through linebacker. The Harris value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but linebacker.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In No. 10 they get a lead back with juice, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick39 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
Tyleik Williams in pick No. 39 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick41 Rnd2 Landon Jackson
No drama and no debate, Landon Jackson went about where he belonged in pick 41. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick72 Rnd3 Jalen Royals
Jalen Royals at the 72nd pick is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick148 Rnd5 Chase Lundt
A wild overpay on Chase Lundt in Round 5, Pick 10, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick233 Rnd7 Torricelli Simpkins III
Torricelli Simpkins III at the 233rd overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick240 Rnd7 Jermari Harris
They read the board right and Jermari Harris was the payoff at pick No. 240. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
