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

There is reaching, and then there is Davison Igbinosun at the 116th pick. The Bears jumped the board by 21 and dared it to prove them wrong. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. On value alone, Stackhouse makes the weekend a net positive. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Jonah Savaiinaea
In pick 25 they get an anchor for the offensive line. A real need, handled.
Pick33 Rnd2 Landon Jackson
They paid sticker price for Landon Jackson in the 33rd pick, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick52 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tate Ratledge. It fills a real need, too.
Pick84 Rnd3 Sonny Styles
They took Sonny Styles at par in the Round 3 slot, which is nothing to complain about. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick89 Rnd3 Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton in No. 89 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick110 Rnd4 Nazir Stackhouse
A quiet steal in slot 110: Nazir Stackhouse for less than the market said. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick116 Rnd4 Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun at pick 116 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick148 Rnd5 Tyler Baron
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tyler Baron in pick No. 148, miles early. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick152 Rnd5 Will Sheppard
Will Sheppard at the 152nd overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick180 Rnd6 Hunter Wohler
Hunter Wohler in No. 180 is fair value, right on his grade. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick182 Rnd6 Thor Griffith
They jumped the gun on Thor Griffith, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick213 Rnd7 Bru McCoy
Bru McCoy at slot 213 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
