Draft Grade — Bears

FutureB-
The Bears found their guy under center in Williams: B-. The Bears spent the pick that matters most on Caleb Williams, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. The Bortolini reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.
The trades cost them a sliver of value they did not need to spend.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
Caleb Williams in pick No. 1 is fair value, right on his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick9
Rnd1
Rome Odunze
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Rome Odunze. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick87
Rnd3
Jonah Elliss
Jonah Elliss at the 87th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick122
Rnd4
Ben Sinnott
A straight-up fair deal on Ben Sinnott at No. 122, value and slot in agreement. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick140
Rnd5
Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan at the Round 5 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick174
Rnd5
Tanor Bortolini
They paid a round early for Tanor Bortolini in the 174th pick, more than the board wanted. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
