Draft Grade — Bears
Overall C-
ValueF NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Flashes of a plan, unevenly run, for the Bears: C-.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Bears spent No. 25 on Kalil Alexander, a name the board had a full 202 spots lower.

Dennis-Sutton at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Bottom line, the swing picks will decide whether this ages well.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kalil Alexander
In pick No. 25 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Blake Miller
They left a pile of value on the table to take Blake Miller this early at slot 57. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick89 Rnd3 Mikail Kamara
Mikail Kamara at the 89th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick129 Rnd4 DJ Campbell
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for DJ Campbell. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick164 Rnd5 Dani Dennis-Sutton
Dani Dennis-Sutton in the 164th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick219 Rnd7 Thaddeus Dixon
Thaddeus Dixon at pick 219 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
