Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Bears a A-.

The Bears ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided.

They will need Mukuba to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Bottom line, they did the job about as well as it can be done.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
They paid sticker price for Olumuyiwa Fashanu in pick 7, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick39 Rnd2 Graham Barton
A straight-up fair deal on Graham Barton at No. 39, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick48 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing JT Tuimoloau in pick No. 48. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick62 Rnd2 Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran in Round 2, Pick 30 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick69 Rnd3 Ja'Lynn Polk
Value with a capital V on Ja'Lynn Polk in the 69th pick, a genuine coup. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick71 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
A conviction pick on Andrew Mukuba at the Round 3 slot that the board grades a round light. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick105 Rnd4 Danny Stutsman
Nothing to complain about; Danny Stutsman went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick132 Rnd4 MarShawn Lloyd
MarShawn Lloyd at slot 132 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick134 Rnd4 Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey at pick 134 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick142 Rnd5 Jack Nelson
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jack Nelson. It fills a real need, too.
