Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesA- FutureB
Grand theft in No. 42: the Bears steal Nubin and grade out a B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Bears were there to profit. Tyler Nubin, the No. 21 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick 42. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

With interior defensive lineman, running back and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on DT-EDGE is the choice that costs them. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They will need McLaughlin to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
They paid sticker price for Marvin Harrison Jr. in No. 2, and that is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick10 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In slot 10 they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick42 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
Tyler Nubin in the Round 2 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick66 Rnd3 Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell at the 66th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick74 Rnd3 Maason Smith
A surprising call. With interior defensive lineman, running back and other spots still to address, they spent the 74th pick on Maason Smith, a DT-EDGE they were not short of.
Pick110 Rnd4 Seth McLaughlin
They paid up for Seth McLaughlin at pick 110 when waiting would have done the job. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick126 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Matt Goncalves in Round 4, Pick 26, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick147 Rnd5 Khyree Jackson
The board fumbled Khyree Jackson all the way to pick No. 147, and they scooped it up. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick188 Rnd6 Ty'Ron Hopper
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Ty'Ron Hopper at the 188th pick is the proof. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick231 Rnd7 Kaimon Rucker
They let Kaimon Rucker come to them and pounced at pick 231. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
