Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Bears a B.

The Bears treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending pick 148 on Miles Frazier a full 52 spots early.

The Umanmielen pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Shavon Revel Jr.
A reach on Shavon Revel Jr. in slot 11; the board had better options right there. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick39 Rnd2 Princely Umanmielen
Princely Umanmielen at Round 2, Pick 7 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick42 Rnd2 James Pearce Jr.
Circle this one: James Pearce Jr. at No. 42 is a fall that decides a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick73 Rnd3 Clay Webb
A straight-up fair deal on Clay Webb at the 73rd overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick148 Rnd5 Miles Frazier
They left a pile of value on the table to take Miles Frazier this early at pick No. 148. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick203 Rnd6 Jared Wilson
By-the-book stuff, Jared Wilson at pick 203 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick226 Rnd7 Kevin Winston Jr.
The board fumbled Kevin Winston Jr. all the way to pick 226, and they scooped it up. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick244 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith at pick No. 244 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
