Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
Larceny in pick No. 234 lands the Bears a B+, Mondon Jr. and all.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Bears were there to profit. Smael Mondon Jr., the No. 111 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick 234. They moved the roster forward and banked a B+ for it.

If Sanders pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The phones were where this weekend was really won. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In No. 20 they get a security blanket over the middle. More want than need.
Pick39 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in slot 39 is fair value, right on his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick41 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
Walter Nolen in pick 41 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick45 Rnd2 Deone Walker
Deone Walker at pick No. 45 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick51 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
Nothing to complain about; Xavier Watts went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick72 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
No edge and no loss on Tate Ratledge in the 72nd overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick121 Rnd4 Kaleb Johnson
You do not let a running back like Kaleb Johnson reach the 121st pick and blink. They did not. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick149 Rnd5 Jake Majors
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the Round 5 slot is the definition of value, full stop. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick193 Rnd6 Nazir Stackhouse
They paid sticker price for Nazir Stackhouse in pick 193, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick197 Rnd6 Barrett Carter
They will replay Barrett Carter at the Round 6 slot for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick210 Rnd6 Hayden Conner
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Hayden Conner. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick234 Rnd7 Smael Mondon Jr.
Circle this one: Smael Mondon Jr. at slot 234 is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick235 Rnd7 Trevor Etienne
They read the board right and Trevor Etienne was the payoff at the 235th pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick242 Rnd7 Shilo Sanders
A big swing on Shilo Sanders at No. 242, well ahead of any board in the building. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
