Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D-
ValueB NeedB- TradesF FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Bears to a D-.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Bears, and the value they bled adds up to real damage.

The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Barton has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

That is an edge rusher worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and interior defensive lineman is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a true top target at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick3 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In pick No. 3 they get a difference-maker at receiver. A real need, handled.
Pick16 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In slot 16 they get a bendy edge with upside at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick35 Rnd2 Graham Barton
They paid up for Graham Barton at Round 2, Pick 3 when waiting would have done the job. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
