Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Bears let Judkins fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

Call it larceny. Quinshon Judkins sat on the board until pick 193, and the Bears did not need to be asked twice. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

The Walker reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. For all the activity, cornerback went untouched, which is hard to explain. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In the 10th overall pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
A straight-up fair deal on Tyler Booker at Round 2, Pick 7, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick41 Rnd2 Deone Walker
Value said wait; Deone Walker in the Round 2 slot says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick72 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
They robbed the room for Xavier Watts here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick147 Rnd5 Jake Majors
You do not let an offensive lineman like Jake Majors reach pick 147 and blink. They did not. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick193 Rnd6 Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins at slot 193 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick233 Rnd7 Jonah Monheim
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jonah Monheim at pick No. 233 is the proof. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick240 Rnd7 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed slipping to No. 240 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
