Draft Grade — Bears
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB TradesC FutureC+
A mixed bag for the Bears, and a C+ to match.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Bears shredded theirs for Micah Morris. He came off 66 spots early, and the room will hear about it.

The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Landing Slaughter that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

If Trevor Goosby and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Trevor Goosby
In Round 1, Pick 29 they get a building block for the line, though the board says they badly overpaid. A real need, handled.
Pick61 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter in the 61st pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick93 Rnd3 Nicholas Singleton
A tidy little value on Nicholas Singleton in slot 93, a step better than break-even. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick95 Rnd3 Kenyatta Jackson Jr.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Kenyatta Jackson Jr. well ahead of where he belonged. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick168 Rnd5 Patrick Payton
They reached a country mile for Patrick Payton at the 168th overall pick, and the board is aghast. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick241 Rnd7 Micah Morris
Micah Morris at No. 241 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick245 Rnd7 J. Michael Sturdivant
They took J. Michael Sturdivant at par in No. 245, which is nothing to complain about. A need, and now a little less of one.
