Draft Grade — Bears

Grand theft in slot 108: the Bears steal Stover and grade out a C.

The Bears did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Cade Stover fell into Round 4, Pick 8.

They are betting Washington proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want.

It is not that Sinnott is a bad player; it is that the Bears had louder needs to answer first.

So much rides on Laiatu Latu that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In the Round 1 slot they get a premier pass rusher. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick11 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In slot 11 they get a blindside protector, though the board says they badly overpaid. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick23 Rnd1 Byron Murphy II
In No. 23 they get a run-stuffing presence up front at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick75 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul at the 75th pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick108 Rnd4 Cade Stover
Somehow Cade Stover was still sitting there in pick No. 108, and they pounced on premier tight end value. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick122 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went tight end with Ben Sinnott while clear needs at running back, cornerback and other spots sat open.
Pick157 Rnd5 Tahj Washington
Tahj Washington in Round 5, Pick 21 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
