Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Bears worked the phones like thieves and earned a A-.

The Bears spent real capital to be 62 picks early on Brandon Coleman, and the board is going to hold them to it.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

In the end it comes back to Brock Bowers, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
In pick No. 6 they get a matchup weapon at tight end. Need was not the driver here.
Pick17 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In the Round 1 slot they get a disruptor off the edge at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
Tyler Nubin at Round 2, Pick 2 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick39 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
Nothing to complain about; Xavier Legette went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick50 Rnd2 Graham Barton
Graham Barton in the 50th pick is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick68 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
A conviction pick on Malachi Corley at slot 68 that the board grades a round light. It fills a real need, too.
Pick75 Rnd3 Darius Robinson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Darius Robinson well ahead of where he belonged. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick96 Rnd3 Michael Pratt
No edge and no loss on Michael Pratt in Round 3, Pick 33; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick110 Rnd4 Brandon Coleman
This one needs a full-page explanation: Brandon Coleman in the 110th overall pick, miles early. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick122 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
They reached into another round for Braelon Allen, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
