Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Bears: B-.

The Bears spent real capital to be 50 picks early on Anthony Lucas, and the board is going to hold them to it. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Thomas.

On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Olaivavega Ioane
In the 25th pick they get protection for the quarterback. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Malachi Lawrence
Malachi Lawrence at the 57th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick60 Rnd2 Anthony Lucas
Anthony Lucas at the Round 2 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick89 Rnd3 Jaishawn Barham
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jaishawn Barham this early at No. 89. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick129 Rnd4 Julian Neal
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Julian Neal at pick No. 129. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick239 Rnd7 Zavion Thomas
A tidy bit of business in pick 239, where Zavion Thomas graded well above the range. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick241 Rnd7 Trey Zuhn III
They took Trey Zuhn III at par in the 241st overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
