Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureA+
The Bears got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the B-.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Bears did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high.

The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Gentry.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In the 5th overall pick they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick19 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
Dallas Turner in Round 1, Pick 19 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick37 Rnd2 Quinyon Mitchell
A reasonable price with a little left over, Quinyon Mitchell in slot 37. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick75 Rnd3 Ricky Pearsall
No edge and no loss on Ricky Pearsall in pick No. 75; it is a wash and a sensible one. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick115 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson slid further than he should have, and the Round 4 slot is lovely value for the cornerback. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick122 Rnd4 Ainias Smith
Ainias Smith at No. 122 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick146 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
A quiet steal in the 146th pick: Luke McCaffrey for less than the market said. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick156 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper at pick 156 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick254 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
Eric Gentry in pick No. 254 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It fills a real need, too.
