Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in No. 149 lands the Bears a B, Pierce and all.

The Bears spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Hollin Pierce, the No. 112 name on the board, in pick 149. The bottom line is a respectable B.

They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it. They will need Webb to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 10 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A real need, handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Princely Umanmielen
Fair-plus on Princely Umanmielen, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
Taking Walter Nolen in pick 41 is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick72 Rnd3 Xavier Restrepo
A slide stopped in No. 72, with Xavier Restrepo worth more than the price. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick149 Rnd5 Hollin Pierce
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Hollin Pierce in pick No. 149, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick235 Rnd7 Clay Webb
They liked Clay Webb enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 235. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick242 Rnd7 Jabbar Muhammad
Jabbar Muhammad in the 242nd overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
