Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA FutureA-
The Bears robbed the room for Taylor. Final grade: A-.

The Bears did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Mason Taylor fell into Round 5, Pick 10.

They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it. They will need Stewart to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

It is a haul that will look even better come September.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Josh Simmons
In the 20th pick they get a cornerstone up front at fair value.
Pick39 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
A quiet steal in pick No. 39: Kenneth Grant for less than the market said. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick41 Rnd2 Shemar Stewart
A reach on Shemar Stewart in Round 2, Pick 9; the board had better options right there. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick55 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in pick 55 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick72 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts at slot 72 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick76 Rnd3 Jalen Royals
Jalen Royals slipping to the Round 3 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick116 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Circle this one: Jake Majors at No. 116 is a fall that decides a draft. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick147 Rnd5 Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor at the 147th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
