Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueA- NeedB- TradesA FutureB+
The Bears found their guy under center in Williams: B+.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Tykee Smith, the 205th pick, roughly 59 picks past where he belonged.

So much rides on Caleb Williams that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. With edge rusher and interior defensive lineman unsolved, spending premium capital on safety is the choice that costs them.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. They left with running back solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In pick 2 they get a franchise quarterback at fair value.
Pick17 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In pick No. 17 they get a weapon on the perimeter, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
You do not let an offensive lineman like Olumuyiwa Fashanu reach the 36th pick and blink. They did not. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick44 Rnd2 Nate Wiggins
Nate Wiggins at pick No. 44 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick48 Rnd2 Brian Thomas Jr.
The board fumbled Brian Thomas Jr. all the way to Round 2, Pick 16, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick54 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
A slide stopped in the 54th overall pick, with Tyler Nubin worth more than the price. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick75 Rnd3 Zach Frazier
Zach Frazier slid further than he should have, and pick 75 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick101 Rnd4 Jaden Hicks
A want over a need in the Round 4 slot: Jaden Hicks adds a safety while edge rusher and interior defensive lineman keeps waiting.
Pick103 Rnd4 Xavier Worthy
A wide receiver of that caliber at No. 103 is the definition of value, full stop. It fills a real need, too.
Pick119 Rnd4 Bucky Irving
They will replay Bucky Irving at slot 119 for years; that is how good the value is. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick123 Rnd4 Caelen Carson
They robbed the room for Caelen Carson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick135 Rnd4 Sataoa Laumea
Sataoa Laumea at the Round 4 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick143 Rnd5 Ben Sinnott
They read the board right and Ben Sinnott was the payoff at pick No. 143. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick173 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
Taking Nehemiah Pritchett in pick 173 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick194 Rnd6 Caedan Wallace
Caedan Wallace is a better player than slot 194 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick205 Rnd6 Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith in Round 6, Pick 30 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick210 Rnd6 Isaiah Davis
Circle this one: Isaiah Davis at No. 210 is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick211 Rnd6 Ty'Ron Hopper
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Ty'Ron Hopper in the 211th pick, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick216 Rnd6 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey in the 216th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick228 Rnd7 Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs at the Round 7 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The roster fit checks out.
