Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA+ FutureA+
Best value of the weekend goes to the Bears for Trice: A-.

Whoever sat across the table from the Bears should ask for a receipt. They cleaned the room out, prying loose far more value than they gave up, and it was the quiet MVP of their weekend. Add it all up and it grades out a clean A-.

The Trice value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. Spending an early pick on safety with running back, linebacker and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain.

It is a haul that will look even better come September.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In the 2nd pick they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value.
Pick33 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
No edge and no loss on Kamren Kinchens in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick46 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jackson Powers-Johnson. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick65 Rnd3 Bralen Trice
Bralen Trice at Round 3, Pick 1 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick75 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in slot 75 is fair value, right on his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick88 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. at pick No. 88 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick110 Rnd4 Ainias Smith
Ainias Smith at Round 4, Pick 10 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick118 Rnd4 Beau Brade
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Beau Brade adds a safety and leaves running back, linebacker and other spots untouched.
Pick122 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
A surprising call. With running back, linebacker and other spots still to address, they spent the Round 4 slot on Cole Bishop, a safety they were not short of.
Pick146 Rnd5 Cam Hart
A slide stopped in No. 146, with Cam Hart worth more than the price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick154 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
Fair-plus on Theo Johnson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick194 Rnd6 Christian Jones
No drama and no debate, Christian Jones went about where he belonged in pick No. 194. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick236 Rnd7 Matthew Jones
They paid sticker price for Matthew Jones in the 236th pick, and that is fine. A need, and now a little less of one.
