Draft Grade — Bears
Overall C+
ValueF NeedB TradesA+ FutureC-
The Bears turned the phones into found money: C+.

The Bears clearly saw something nobody else did in Derek Williams Jr., taking him 243 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. Some smart calls, some head-scratchers, and a C+ in the wash.

The Tate value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The phones were where this weekend was really won.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

So much rides on Caleb Lomu that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Caleb Lomu
In the 8th overall pick they get a long-term starter on the line, though the board says they badly overpaid. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick78 Rnd3 Olaivavega Ioane
By-the-book stuff, Olaivavega Ioane at No. 78 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick86 Rnd3 Rayshaun Benny
Rayshaun Benny in the Round 3 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick101 Rnd4 Derek Williams Jr.
They left a pile of value on the table to take Derek Williams Jr. this early at pick 101. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick155 Rnd5 Demond Claiborne
Demond Claiborne at the 155th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick198 Rnd6 Carnell Tate
They robbed the room for Carnell Tate here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick254 Rnd7 Dasan McCullough
A real head-scratcher, Dasan McCullough in pick 254 is miles ahead of his ranking. Hard to map this one onto the depth chart at all.
