Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueA- NeedA- TradesB+ FutureD
The Bears won the night they stopped Nolen from sliding. Grade: B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Walter Nolen had no business being available in pick 72, and the Bears did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

They went 3 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
Travis Hunter is a better player than the 10th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick11 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Ashton Jeanty in pick 11. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick72 Rnd3 Walter Nolen
The board fumbled Walter Nolen all the way to pick No. 72, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
