Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA FutureB-
Quarterback settled, Maye in the fold, and a B for the Bears.

The search is over. The Bears handed the keys to Drake Maye, and the whole operation now runs on his development. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Reaching for Powers-Johnson left real value on the table behind him.

The Kamara pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In the 3rd overall pick they get the arm they will build around. A real need, handled.
Pick5 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
In the 5th pick they get a mismatch in the passing game at fair value. More want than need.
Pick17 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson at pick No. 17 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick67 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran in No. 67 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick69 Rnd3 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A conviction pick on Jackson Powers-Johnson at Round 3, Pick 5 that the board grades a round light. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick105 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice at the Round 4 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick128 Rnd4 J. Michael Sturdivant
J. Michael Sturdivant at pick 128 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick142 Rnd5 Mohamed Kamara
A slide stopped in slot 142, with Mohamed Kamara worth more than the price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick183 Rnd6 Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson at pick No. 183 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick226 Rnd7 Kamal Hadden
A reach for Kamal Hadden in the 226th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
