Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB NeedB- TradesB+ FutureB-
The Bears let Sanders fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Raheim Sanders, the 232nd pick, roughly 86 picks past where he belonged. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss. The roster is better shaped than it was, with running back chief among the fixes.

Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In No. 14 they get a matchup weapon at tight end. More want than need.
Pick39 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori in pick 39 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick41 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jihaad Campbell. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick45 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
No drama and no debate, Aireontae Ersery went about where he belonged in Round 2, Pick 13. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick72 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins at the Round 3 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick148 Rnd5 Emery Jones Jr.
Taking Emery Jones Jr. in the 148th pick is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick232 Rnd7 Raheim Sanders
Circle this one: Raheim Sanders at the 232nd overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick233 Rnd7 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed in slot 233 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick240 Rnd7 Brant Kuithe
Good price on Brant Kuithe in the 240th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
