Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Skattebo should have been long gone. The Bears pounced, and earned a B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Cam Skattebo, slot 233, roughly 123 picks past where he belonged. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

The Frazier pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but cornerback.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In the 10th pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
They robbed the room for Nick Emmanwori here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick41 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Kenneth Grant reach No. 41 and blink. They did not. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick72 Rnd3 JT Tuimoloau
JT Tuimoloau slid further than he should have, and the 72nd overall pick is lovely value for the edge rusher. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick147 Rnd5 Miles Frazier
They reached into another round for Miles Frazier, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick193 Rnd6 Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton at slot 193 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick233 Rnd7 Cam Skattebo
Steal is underselling it; Cam Skattebo at the Round 7 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick240 Rnd7 Jeffrey Bassa
They barely believed it either: Jeffrey Bassa still on the board at pick No. 240. A need, and now a little less of one.
