Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesC+ FutureB
No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Bears.

The Bears went off the board in a big way for Dayon Hayes, 51 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

That is a safety worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In Round 1, Pick 10 they get a centerpiece for the ground game, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Josh Simmons
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Josh Simmons in the Round 2 slot, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick44 Rnd2 Josaiah Stewart
They paid a round early for Josaiah Stewart in No. 44, more than the board wanted. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick72 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
They paid sticker price for Tate Ratledge in pick No. 72, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick149 Rnd5 Tory Horton
Tory Horton at slot 149 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick197 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jay Higgins at the 197th overall pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick211 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues at slot 211 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick235 Rnd7 Alijah Huzzie
Alijah Huzzie at the Round 7 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick242 Rnd7 Dayon Hayes
Dayon Hayes in the 242nd overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick249 Rnd7 Akili Arnold
They barely believed it either: Akili Arnold still on the board at pick 249. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
