Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureD+
The Bears worked the phones like thieves and earned a B.

The trade table was a mismatch, and the Bears were on the right end of it, hauling in a fortune in surplus value.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They will need Williams to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Starks.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick39 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Malaki Starks at the 39th pick is the proof. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick41 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
They read the board right and Omarion Hampton was the payoff at pick No. 41. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Good price on Jihaad Campbell in the 44th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It fills a real need, too.
Pick72 Rnd3 Jack Bech
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jack Bech in No. 72. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick76 Rnd3 Charles Grant
The board had cheaper options than Charles Grant at pick 76, and it noticed. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick149 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Bhayshul Tuten. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick171 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A reach for Dont'e Thornton Jr. in slot 171; a little patience would have been rewarded. The roster fit checks out.
Pick174 Rnd5 Clay Webb
Clay Webb at Round 5, Pick 36 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick240 Rnd7 John Williams
John Williams at pick No. 240 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
