Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA+ FutureA+
Smith-Wade should have been long gone. The Bears pounced, and earned a A-.

Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Bears came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close. They executed a plan and it shows in the A-.

Getting Smith-Wade where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up.

Bottom line, with Rome Odunze leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In No. 9 they get a go-to option on the outside. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
They jumped the gun on Zach Frazier, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick75 Rnd3 Ricky Pearsall
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ricky Pearsall. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick86 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
The board had cheaper options than Tykee Smith at the Round 3 slot, and it noticed. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick110 Rnd4 Dillon Johnson
They paid sticker price for Dillon Johnson in the 110th pick, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick127 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
A conviction pick on Ben Sinnott at slot 127 that the board grades a round light. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick146 Rnd5 Keith Randolph Jr.
No drama and no debate, Keith Randolph Jr. went about where he belonged in No. 146. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick186 Rnd6 Chau Smith-Wade
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Chau Smith-Wade in pick No. 186, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick232 Rnd7 Trevor Keegan
Nothing to complain about; Trevor Keegan went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The roster fit checks out.
