Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Bears did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The tape said wait; the Bears did not. PJ Williams went at slot 244, a good 36 picks before the board was ready. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Haulcy. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Caleb Banks
In the 26th overall pick they get a double-digit-sack hope. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick60 Rnd2 A'Mauri Washington
They paid up for A'Mauri Washington at slot 60 when waiting would have done the job. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick91 Rnd3 A.J. Haulcy
The board had A.J. Haulcy higher than Round 3, Pick 27, and the safety fell to them anyway. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick131 Rnd4 Jadarian Price
No drama and no debate, Jadarian Price went about where he belonged in pick No. 131. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick168 Rnd5 Aaron Anderson
They took Aaron Anderson at par in the Round 5 slot, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
Pick241 Rnd7 Barion Brown
Barion Brown in the 241st pick is fair value, right on his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick244 Rnd7 PJ Williams
A wild overpay on PJ Williams in Round 7, Pick 29, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick257 Rnd7 Jack Velling
Jack Velling at pick No. 257 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
