Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Bears did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

You can draft well and still miss the point. The Bears did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to interior defensive lineman, which was the need that mattered most. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

That is a running back worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. They went 3 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the 10th pick they get an every-down engine for the run game at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick39 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
Fair-plus on Jack Sawyer, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick41 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
They took Aireontae Ersery at par in pick 41, which is nothing to complain about. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
