Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
The Bears let Banks fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The Bears' one glaring miss is running back, a need they left exactly as they found it. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

They banked enough surplus on Banks to cover a lot of smaller sins. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

The dealing was even money, start to finish.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick38 Rnd2 Zion Young
By-the-book stuff, Zion Young at the 38th pick squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick57 Rnd2 A.J. Haulcy
They let A.J. Haulcy come to them and pounced at slot 57. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick59 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
They did well to land Jake Slaughter in Round 2, Pick 27, just ahead of his grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick60 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
They barely believed it either: Caleb Banks still on the board at the Round 2 slot. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick89 Rnd3 Sam Roush
Sam Roush in pick 89 is fair value, right on his grade. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick129 Rnd4 Davison Igbinosun
Nothing to complain about; Davison Igbinosun went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
