Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bears finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B-.

The Bears treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending the Round 4 slot on Jordan Jefferson a full 61 spots early. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

The whole projection now runs through Caleb Williams; hit there and everything else looks smarter. That running back hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the running back spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In pick No. 1 they get their guy under center for the next decade at fair value.
Pick9 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
They reached into another round for Brian Thomas Jr., and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick75 Rnd3 Mohamed Kamara
They talked themselves into Mohamed Kamara at Round 3, Pick 11, and the board did not agree. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick122 Rnd4 Jordan Jefferson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jordan Jefferson. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
