Draft Grade — Bears
Overall
B
ValueB-
NeedA-

FutureB-
The Bears checked most of the boxes and earned a B. There is a lot to like until you notice interior defensive lineman is still a hole. The Bears never got to the one that mattered most.
Parker II has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick Analysis
Pick29
Rnd1
Cashius Howell
In the 29th overall pick they get a bendy edge with upside at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick61
Rnd2
Brian Parker II
They paid up for Brian Parker II at slot 61 when waiting would have done the job. The roster fit checks out.
