Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesD FutureA
Good, not great, for the Bears: B.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Bears shredded theirs for Tim Smith. He came off 92 spots early, and the room will hear about it. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

The Ersery pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

A small leak at the table, if not a fatal one.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In pick No. 25 they get a centerfielder for the defense at fair value.
Pick39 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
A straight-up fair deal on Jihaad Campbell at the 39th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick41 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
Nice patience on Derrick Harmon, who had no business lasting to Round 2, Pick 9. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick72 Rnd3 Aireontae Ersery
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the Round 3 slot is the definition of value, full stop. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick79 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins in No. 79 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick148 Rnd5 Pat Bryant
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Pat Bryant. The roster fit checks out.
Pick233 Rnd7 Tim Smith
A real head-scratcher, Tim Smith in the 233rd pick is miles ahead of his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick240 Rnd7 Bilhal Kone
A tidy bit of business in No. 240, where Bilhal Kone graded well above the range. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
