Draft Grade — Bears

The Bears drew a line under the quarterback search with Williams: B. There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Bears started one anyway for Drake Nugent, 88 picks ahead of schedule. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.
Caleb Williams is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
They banked enough surplus on Haynes to cover a lot of smaller sins. The trade work was a quiet net positive.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
They paid sticker price for Caleb Williams in pick 1, and that is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick13
Rnd1
Rome Odunze
In the 13th overall pick they get a weapon on the perimeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick44
Rnd2
Bralen Trice
This one needs a full-page explanation: Bralen Trice in No. 44, miles early. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick75
Rnd3
Christian Haynes
A quiet steal in the 75th pick: Christian Haynes for less than the market said. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick122
Rnd4
Drake Nugent
A wild overpay on Drake Nugent in pick No. 122, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
