Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB
The Bears turned the phones into found money: B+.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Reuben Fatheree II, 88 picks early at Round 7, Pick 30. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B+.

The Walker pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.

The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In the 13th pick they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher, though the board says they badly overpaid. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick39 Rnd2 James Pearce Jr.
The board fumbled James Pearce Jr. all the way to pick 39, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick42 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
They read the board right and Tate Ratledge was the payoff at slot 42. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick73 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
They robbed the room for Kaleb Johnson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick78 Rnd3 Tyler Warren
Circle this one: Tyler Warren at Round 3, Pick 14 is a fall that decides a draft. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick148 Rnd5 Jalen Catalon
Jalen Catalon at No. 148 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick203 Rnd6 Jalon Walker
Taking Jalon Walker in pick No. 203 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick226 Rnd7 Makari Paige
Makari Paige at pick 226 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick244 Rnd7 Reuben Fatheree II
A real head-scratcher, Reuben Fatheree II in the 244th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
