Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueC NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Bears won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: A-.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Ben Sinnott at slot 86, a reach of 52 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. The sum of the weekend is a deserved A-.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The Sinnott pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at running back, cornerback and other spots.

They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

In the end it comes back to Rome Odunze, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Rome Odunze. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick9 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In pick 9 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
They liked Jackson Powers-Johnson enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 2 slot. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick43 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
Ja'Tavion Sanders at pick No. 43 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick47 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
A conviction pick on T'Vondre Sweat at the 47th overall pick that the board grades a round light. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
Javon Bullard at slot 55 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick75 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
A straight-up fair deal on Cooper Beebe at pick 75, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick86 Rnd3 Ben Sinnott
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Ben Sinnott at tight end with running back, cornerback and other spots open.
Pick110 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Cole Bishop adds a safety and leaves running back, cornerback and other spots untouched.
Pick127 Rnd4 Keith Randolph Jr.
They talked themselves into Keith Randolph Jr. at the Round 4 slot, and the board did not agree. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick146 Rnd5 Josh Proctor
A wild overpay on Josh Proctor in pick No. 146, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick186 Rnd6 Taulia Tagovailoa
Taulia Tagovailoa at the 186th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
