Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Bears.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Seth McLaughlin, the No. 202 name on the board, stolen at the 246th overall pick. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

The cost of the Jackson reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In the Round 1 slot they get a disruptive interior force. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick39 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
The board fumbled Nick Emmanwori all the way to No. 39, and they scooped it up. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick41 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
A big swing on Donovan Jackson at pick 41, well ahead of any board in the building. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick71 Rnd3 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker at slot 71 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick144 Rnd5 Nicholas Singleton
Circle this one: Nicholas Singleton at the 144th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick200 Rnd6 Jonah Monheim
No edge and no loss on Jonah Monheim in Round 6, Pick 25; it is a wash and a sensible one. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick229 Rnd7 Miles Frazier
Taking Miles Frazier in the 229th pick is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick246 Rnd7 Seth McLaughlin
They will replay Seth McLaughlin at the Round 7 slot for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
