Draft Grade — Bears
Overall C+
ValueC+ NeedB TradesD FutureC+
A weekend that raised as many questions as it answered. The Bears get a C+.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Bears reached some 160 spots for Jay Toia, and value like that does not grow back.

Moss falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. A whole weekend of picks and cornerback is somehow still a want.

Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In pick 9 they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
No drama and no debate, Jonah Savaiinaea went about where he belonged in the 36th pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick41 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
They left a pile of value on the table to take JT Tuimoloau this early at pick No. 41. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick73 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
They went early on Donovan Jackson in the 73rd overall pick, and the value did not follow. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick146 Rnd5 Trey Zuhn III
They talked themselves into Trey Zuhn III at Round 5, Pick 8, and the board did not agree. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick159 Rnd5 Miles Frazier
A wild overpay on Miles Frazier in No. 159, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick160 Rnd5 Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles at the Round 5 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick165 Rnd5 Jay Toia
Jay Toia in slot 165 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick203 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
You do not let a wide receiver like Dont'e Thornton Jr. reach the 203rd overall pick and blink. They did not. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick214 Rnd6 Jake Briningstool
They took Jake Briningstool at par in No. 214, which is nothing to complain about. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick228 Rnd7 Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim in pick 228 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick233 Rnd7 Le'Veon Moss
Somehow Le'Veon Moss was still sitting there in pick No. 233, and they pounced on premier running back value. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick244 Rnd7 Jaishawn Barham
They robbed the room for Jaishawn Barham here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It fills a real need, too.
Pick248 Rnd7 Tim Smith
A big swing on Tim Smith at Round 7, Pick 34, well ahead of any board in the building. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick249 Rnd7 Hunter Wohler
Hunter Wohler at the 249th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick252 Rnd7 Donovan Edwards
They will replay Donovan Edwards at the Round 7 slot for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
