Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
Larceny in No. 147 lands the Bears a B+, Judkins and all.

Call it larceny. Quinshon Judkins sat on the board until the 147th pick, and the Bears did not need to be asked twice. The bottom line is a respectable B+.

Reaching for Belton left real value on the table behind him. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Jack Sawyer
In Round 1, Pick 10 they get juice off the edge, even if it was a touch early. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
They took Tyler Booker at par in pick No. 39, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
Pick57 Rnd2 Deone Walker
They paid up for Deone Walker at No. 57 when waiting would have done the job. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick72 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
Somehow Xavier Watts was still sitting there in the Round 3 slot, and they pounced on premier safety value. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick85 Rnd3 Jake Majors
Jake Majors at the 85th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick147 Rnd5 Quinshon Judkins
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Quinshon Judkins in the 147th overall pick, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick162 Rnd5 Seth McLaughlin
A real head-scratcher, Seth McLaughlin in pick 162 is miles ahead of his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick193 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
They robbed the room for Jay Higgins here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick195 Rnd6 Anthony Belton
They reached a country mile for Anthony Belton at the Round 6 slot, and the board is aghast. It fills a real need, too.
Pick227 Rnd7 Shilo Sanders
Shilo Sanders at the 227th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick233 Rnd7 Jared Wilson
Steal is underselling it; Jared Wilson at No. 233 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick240 Rnd7 Luke Lachey
A reach on Luke Lachey in the 240th pick; the board had better options right there. It adds depth where they could use a little.
