Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA- FutureB-
The Bears did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Nadame Tucker in the 89th overall pick, a good 79 spots before the room expected him.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. However the rest shakes out, Reese at that price is a win they earned.

The trade work was a quiet net positive.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a green-dot type in the middle, and a steal at that.
Pick59 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
Caleb Banks at the Round 2 slot is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick89 Rnd3 Nadame Tucker
Nadame Tucker in slot 89 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick128 Rnd4 Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun in pick No. 128 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick129 Rnd4 Treydan Stukes
A real head-scratcher, Treydan Stukes in pick 129 is miles ahead of his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick138 Rnd4 Xavier Nwankpa
This one needs a full-page explanation: Xavier Nwankpa in No. 138, miles early. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick163 Rnd5 Keagen Trost
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Keagen Trost at the 163rd overall pick is the proof. It fills a real need, too.
Pick171 Rnd5 Dae'Quan Wright
They paid sticker price for Dae'Quan Wright in No. 171, and that is fine. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick239 Rnd7 Jeff Caldwell
The board had Jeff Caldwell higher than pick No. 239, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick241 Rnd7 Robert Henry Jr.
Robert Henry Jr. in pick 241 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
