Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D
ValueB+ NeedB TradesF FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Bears for Stutsman: D.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Bears watched Danny Stutsman slide 128 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. It grades a D, and the process earned it.

The cost of the Leigh reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and quarterback is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In Round 1, Pick 9 they get a disruptive interior force. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
A reasonable price with a little left over, Tate Ratledge in pick 36. The roster fit checks out.
Pick41 Rnd2 Luther Burden III
Luther Burden III at the Round 2 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick65 Rnd3 Jalon Walker
A linebacker of that caliber at slot 65 is the definition of value, full stop. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick73 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
They barely believed it either: Xavier Watts still on the board at the 73rd overall pick. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick108 Rnd4 David Bailey
A big swing on David Bailey at pick No. 108, well ahead of any board in the building. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick134 Rnd4 Jake Majors
They robbed the room for Jake Majors here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick146 Rnd5 Azareye'h Thomas
Azareye'h Thomas in No. 146 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick153 Rnd5 Aeneas Peebles
Taking Aeneas Peebles in Round 5, Pick 15 is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick158 Rnd5 Luke Kandra
They will replay Luke Kandra at the Round 5 slot for years; that is how good the value is. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick203 Rnd6 Devin Neal
Devin Neal at slot 203 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick217 Rnd7 Danny Stutsman
Steal is underselling it; Danny Stutsman at pick No. 217 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick228 Rnd7 Seth McLaughlin
A slide stopped in pick 228, with Seth McLaughlin worth more than the price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick230 Rnd7 Keon Sabb
You do not let a safety like Keon Sabb reach the 230th overall pick and blink. They did not. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick244 Rnd7 Jake Briningstool
Jake Briningstool in No. 244 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick245 Rnd7 Tristan Leigh
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tristan Leigh this early at the 245th pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick256 Rnd7 Javontez Spraggins
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Javontez Spraggins. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
