Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Bears a B-.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Bears took Jonathon Brooks at the Round 1 slot, roughly 35 spots before his name belonged.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. On the needs board they went 3 of 8, with running back the one that mattered most.

They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Marvin Harrison Jr. at the 1st pick squarely in line with his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick9 Rnd1 Jonathon Brooks
They reached a country mile for Jonathon Brooks at the 9th overall pick, and the board is aghast. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick75 Rnd3 Javon Baker
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Javon Baker. It fills a real need, too.
Pick122 Rnd4 Isaiah Adams
No drama and no debate, Isaiah Adams went about where he belonged in the Round 4 slot. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick144 Rnd5 Dallin Holker
Dallin Holker in pick No. 144 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
