Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueC NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Bears worked the phones like thieves and earned a B+.

Nobody else had Jackson Powers-Johnson anywhere near the 41st overall pick. The Bears did, by 39 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. They will answer for taking safety early while running back, cornerback and other spots went begging.

A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want. The Bears paired the rookies with proven help, A.J. Terrell leading the way.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In No. 9 they get a go-to option on the outside. A real need, handled.
Pick17 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In Round 1, Pick 17 they get a double-digit-sack hope at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick36 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
A wild overpay on Kamren Kinchens in pick 36, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick41 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jackson Powers-Johnson this early at slot 41. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick73 Rnd3 Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey at the Round 3 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick74 Rnd3 Leonard Taylor III
Leonard Taylor III at pick No. 74 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick110 Rnd4 Jaden Hicks
A want over a need in pick 110: Jaden Hicks adds a safety while running back, cornerback and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick126 Rnd4 Ainias Smith
Ainias Smith at Round 4, Pick 26 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
