Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueA- NeedB TradesC- FutureA+
Larceny in the 204th overall pick lands the Bears a B+, Strong and all.

When a board-topper like Dorian Strong slides to pick 204, you do not overthink it, and the Bears did not. It nets out to a B+, which feels about right.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The trades cost them a sliver of value they did not need to spend. The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.

Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Armand Membou
In the Round 1 slot they get an anchor for the offensive line, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori slid further than he should have, and pick No. 33 is lovely value for the safety. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick41 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
A quiet steal in No. 41: Omarion Hampton for less than the market said. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick62 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Somehow Jihaad Campbell was still sitting there in slot 62, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick72 Rnd3 Tyleik Williams
Circle this one: Tyleik Williams at Round 3, Pick 8 is a fall that decides a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick132 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
The board fumbled Tez Johnson all the way to the 132nd pick, and they scooped it up. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick148 Rnd5 Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra at pick 148 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick204 Rnd6 Dorian Strong
They robbed the room for Dorian Strong here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick206 Rnd6 Cobee Bryant
Cobee Bryant at slot 206 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick233 Rnd7 Jordan Hancock
They will replay Jordan Hancock at pick No. 233 for years; that is how good the value is. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick240 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Cam Jackson reach Round 7, Pick 24 and blink. They did not. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
