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

Start where it matters. The Bears took Caleb Williams to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one.

They are betting Sinnott proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The Washington steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In pick No. 1 they get a passer to set the clock by. A real need, handled.
Pick10 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In Round 1, Pick 10 they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick72 Rnd3 Austin Booker
They paid sticker price for Austin Booker in the 72nd overall pick, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick75 Rnd3 Ben Sinnott
Value said wait; Ben Sinnott in No. 75 says they were not listening. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick111 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
A tidy little value on Zak Zinter in the 111th pick, a step better than break-even. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick125 Rnd4 McKinnley Jackson
By-the-book stuff, McKinnley Jackson at the Round 4 slot squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick220 Rnd6 Tahj Washington
They will replay Tahj Washington at pick 220 for years; that is how good the value is. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
