Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA+ FutureA+
The Bears worked the phones like thieves and earned a A-.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Dylan McMahon, 66 picks early at slot 225.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. That Taylor III pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

Bottom line, with Marvin Harrison Jr. leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick No. 1 they get a home-run threat at receiver. A real need, handled.
Pick32 Rnd1 Keon Coleman
In the Round 1 slot they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick51 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at slot 51 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick68 Rnd3 Chris Braswell
They paid sticker price for Chris Braswell in the 68th overall pick, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick71 Rnd3 Leonard Taylor III
Leonard Taylor III in the 71st pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick104 Rnd4 Tyleik Williams
No drama and no debate, Tyleik Williams went about where he belonged in Round 4, Pick 4. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick107 Rnd4 Max Melton
Max Melton slipping to the 107th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick132 Rnd4 Luke Lachey
The board had cheaper options than Luke Lachey at Round 4, Pick 32, and it noticed. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick141 Rnd5 Darius Robinson
By-the-book stuff, Darius Robinson at slot 141 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick182 Rnd6 Miles Frazier
They paid a round early for Miles Frazier in pick 182, more than the board wanted. It fills a real need, too.
Pick225 Rnd7 Dylan McMahon
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Dylan McMahon well ahead of where he belonged. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
