Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA+
The Bears let Wilson fall and pounced. Final grade: A.

Thirty-one other rooms let Roman Wilson slide, and the Bears were the ones holding the card at slot 123. Highway robbery.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. It is not that Stover is a bad player; it is that the Bears had louder needs to answer first.

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

In short, they turned a good board into a better roster, and it shows.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In the Round 1 slot they get a bendy edge with upside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick9 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In the 9th pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
Kool-Aid McKinstry at Round 2, Pick 5 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick47 Rnd2 Calen Bullock
No edge and no loss on Calen Bullock in the 47th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick69 Rnd3 Ja'Lynn Polk
A slide stopped in pick 69, with Ja'Lynn Polk worth more than the price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick75 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
Christian Haynes in No. 75 is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick111 Rnd4 Cade Stover
They bypassed pressing needs at interior defensive lineman, running back and other spots to take Cade Stover, a TE-EDGE that was not the priority.
Pick123 Rnd4 Roman Wilson
They robbed the room for Roman Wilson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick143 Rnd5 James Williams
They let James Williams come to them and pounced at Round 5, Pick 7. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
