Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueA+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in the 228th overall pick: the Bears steal Stewart and grade out a B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Josaiah Stewart had no business being available in the 228th pick, and the Bears did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

A whole weekend of picks and cornerback is somehow still a want. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the cornerback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the Round 1 slot they get a three-down runner, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick40 Rnd2 Wyatt Milum
They barely believed it either: Wyatt Milum still on the board at Round 2, Pick 8. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick48 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
Walter Nolen at slot 48 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick79 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 79th pick is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick154 Rnd5 Nick Emmanwori
Circle this one: Nick Emmanwori at pick No. 154 is a fall that decides a draft. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick204 Rnd6 Dylan Fairchild
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Dylan Fairchild in pick 204, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick228 Rnd7 Josaiah Stewart
You do not let an edge rusher like Josaiah Stewart reach No. 228 and blink. They did not. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick243 Rnd7 Jake Majors
Taking Jake Majors in the 243rd overall pick is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
