Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
A franchise passer in Williams headlines a A- weekend for the Bears.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Brandon Coleman at pick No. 92, a reach of 93 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

Caleb Williams gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The Bears indulged a want in Hicks while a need in interior defensive lineman, running back and other spots stayed open.

The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Few war rooms will sleep better than this one tonight.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In No. 1 they get their quarterback of the future. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick22 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In the Round 1 slot they get a premier pass rusher at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Brian Thomas Jr.
Brian Thomas Jr. slid further than he should have, and the 36th overall pick is lovely value for the wide receiver. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick44 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
Fair-plus on Tyler Nubin, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick53 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
A conviction pick on Zach Frazier at pick No. 53 that the board grades a round light. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick89 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went safety with Jaden Hicks while clear needs at interior defensive lineman, running back and other spots sat open.
Pick92 Rnd3 Brandon Coleman
They left a pile of value on the table to take Brandon Coleman this early at the 92nd overall pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick125 Rnd4 Myles Cole
A wild overpay on Myles Cole in No. 125, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
