Draft Grade — Bears
Overall C
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureC+
The Bears got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the C.

The Emery Jones Jr. pick is the one that will follow the Bears into the fall. They took him 111 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

Moss falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back.

That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Not a disaster, not a triumph, just a middling class.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In No. 19 they get a bendy edge with upside, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick21 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In the Round 1 slot they get an anchor for the offensive line. A real need, handled.
Pick40 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant at slot 40 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick44 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Fair-plus on Tyler Booker, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick73 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Donovan Jackson. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick74 Rnd3 Jack Sawyer
They robbed the room for Jack Sawyer here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick75 Rnd3 Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. at pick 75 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick82 Rnd3 JT Tuimoloau
Taking JT Tuimoloau in slot 82 is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick118 Rnd4 Tyleik Williams
Tyleik Williams in the Round 4 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick123 Rnd4 DJ Campbell
A wild overpay on DJ Campbell in No. 123, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick166 Rnd5 J.Michael Sturdivant
J.Michael Sturdivant at the 166th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jordan Hancock
A quiet steal in the 174th overall pick: Jordan Hancock for less than the market said. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick207 Rnd6 Bryce Foster
They did well to land Bryce Foster in Round 6, Pick 32, just ahead of his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick213 Rnd6 Julian Fleming
They left a pile of value on the table to take Julian Fleming this early at pick No. 213. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick237 Rnd7 Le'Veon Moss
Somehow Le'Veon Moss was still sitting there in pick No. 237, and they pounced on premier running back value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick239 Rnd7 Jaishawn Barham
Jaishawn Barham in the Round 7 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It fills a real need, too.
