Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB FutureB
Best value of the weekend goes to the Bears for Stutsman: B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Danny Stutsman slide, and the Bears were the ones holding the card at pick No. 142. Highway robbery.

A whole weekend of picks and cornerback is somehow still a want. The Williams pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. The trade work was a quiet net positive.

They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In Round 1, Pick 17 they get a premier pass rusher at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick37 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 37 with a little surplus value in Tate Ratledge. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick40 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
A premium they did not need to pay, Tyleik Williams a notch or two before his time. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick71 Rnd3 Tyler Warren
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Tyler Warren in the 71st overall pick, plain and simple. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick75 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
You do not let an offensive lineman like Dylan Fairchild reach No. 75 and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick87 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
Kaleb Johnson in the 87th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick142 Rnd5 Danny Stutsman
They robbed the room for Danny Stutsman here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick189 Rnd6 Theo Wease Jr.
No drama and no debate, Theo Wease Jr. went about where he belonged in the Round 6 slot. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick200 Rnd6 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson at slot 200 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
