Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureB
Quarterback settled, Daniels in the fold, and a D for the Bears.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Bears did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high.

Every board in the league had Randolph Jr. lower, and that gap is the story. Whatever Jayden Daniels becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

The Bishop pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In the 4th pick they get a weapon on the perimeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick9 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In slot 9 they get a franchise quarterback at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick27 Rnd1 Graham Barton
Graham Barton at the 27th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick35 Rnd2 Quinyon Mitchell
Quinyon Mitchell at pick 35 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
They paid a round early for Jackson Powers-Johnson in the Round 2 slot, more than the board wanted. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick71 Rnd3 Mekhi Wingo
A clean, defensible pick in No. 71 with a little surplus value in Mekhi Wingo. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick74 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson at pick No. 74 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick75 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
No drama and no debate, Christian Mahogany went about where he belonged in Round 3, Pick 11. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick110 Rnd4 Jaheim Bell
A wild overpay on Jaheim Bell in slot 110, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick122 Rnd4 Keith Randolph Jr.
They reached into another round for Keith Randolph Jr., and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick146 Rnd5 Cole Bishop
A safety of that caliber at No. 146 is the definition of value, full stop. It adds depth where they could use a little.
