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

The Bears clearly saw something nobody else did in Jordan Burch, taking him 46 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. No fireworks, but a solid B.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback. However the rest shakes out, Henderson at that price is a win they earned.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In pick No. 23 they get a wrecking ball inside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick30 Rnd1 Jonah Savaiinaea
In No. 30 they get a long-term starter on the line, even if it was a touch early. A real need, handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
No edge and no loss on Xavier Watts in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick51 Rnd2 Jordan Burch
They reached a country mile for Jordan Burch at Round 2, Pick 19, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick72 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, TreVeyon Henderson at pick 72. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick76 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson at the 76th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick117 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
Value with a capital V on Jared Wilson in the Round 4 slot, a genuine coup. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick126 Rnd4 Pat Bryant
They left a pile of value on the table to take Pat Bryant this early at pick 126. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick149 Rnd5 Damien Martinez
They paid up for Damien Martinez at pick No. 149 when waiting would have done the job. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
