Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueA NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Majors should have been long gone. The Bears pounced, and earned a B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Jake Majors, the No. 95 name on the board, stolen at the Round 5 slot. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the 9th pick they get a lead back with juice. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Walter Nolen in pick 36, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick40 Rnd2 Wyatt Milum
You do not let an offensive lineman like Wyatt Milum reach pick No. 40 and blink. They did not. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick73 Rnd3 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker in the Round 3 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick146 Rnd5 Jake Majors
The board fumbled Jake Majors all the way to slot 146, and they scooped it up. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
