Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D
ValueB NeedB- TradesF FutureB+
The Bears answered their biggest question with Williams. Grade: D.

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. A D that will need time and luck to look better.

They have staked the next five years on Caleb Williams, which is the only story that really matters here. The Guyton value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

Wiley has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In pick No. 1 they get their quarterback of the future at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the 9th pick they get a matchup problem out wide. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 Ruke Orhorhoro
Good price on Ruke Orhorhoro in pick 60, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick72 Rnd3 Tyler Guyton
They robbed the room for Tyler Guyton here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The roster fit checks out.
Pick75 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
Calen Bullock in slot 75 is fair value, right on his grade. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick111 Rnd4 Cam Hart
They read the board right and Cam Hart was the payoff at Round 4, Pick 11. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick112 Rnd4 Javon Solomon
A market-rate OLB-EDGE, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Javon Solomon. The roster logic is harder to follow.
Pick114 Rnd4 Maason Smith
Maason Smith in the Round 4 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. This was not a hole anyone had circled.
Pick123 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
A tidy bit of business in pick 123, where Cole Bishop graded well above the range. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick129 Rnd4 Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
Jarvis Brownlee Jr. is a better player than pick No. 129 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick143 Rnd5 Ainias Smith
Ainias Smith in Round 5, Pick 7 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It fills a real need, too.
Pick159 Rnd5 Brennan Jackson
Fair-plus on Brennan Jackson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick162 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
A straight-up fair deal on Trevor Keegan at the 162nd pick, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick187 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
A premium they did not need to pay, Jared Wiley a notch or two before his time. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick253 Rnd7 Edefuan Ulofoshio
They did well to land Edefuan Ulofoshio in the Round 7 slot, just ahead of his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick254 Rnd7 Emani Bailey
They will replay Emani Bailey at the 254th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick257 Rnd7 Tayvion Robinson
Tayvion Robinson at pick 257 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
