Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Bears a B.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Bears would have aced it. Jalen Catalon at the 245th pick is 36 spots clear of where he belonged. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. Getting Haulcy where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with interior defensive lineman the one that mattered most.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Christen Miller
Good price on Christen Miller in pick 26, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick62 Rnd2 Caleb Tiernan
Caleb Tiernan at Round 2, Pick 30 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It fills a real need, too.
Pick90 Rnd3 A.J. Haulcy
Quietly one of the better values of the day, A.J. Haulcy at pick No. 90. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jaishawn Barham
Jaishawn Barham at No. 91 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick125 Rnd4 DJ McKinney
No edge and no loss on DJ McKinney in the Round 4 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick129 Rnd4 Parker Brailsford
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Parker Brailsford. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick167 Rnd5 Jaydn Ott
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jaydn Ott in the Round 5 slot, miles early. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick200 Rnd6 Dane Key
Dane Key at pick 200 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick239 Rnd7 Bear Alexander
They reached into another round for Bear Alexander, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick245 Rnd7 Jalen Catalon
They talked themselves into Jalen Catalon at the 245th pick, and the board did not agree. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick257 Rnd7 Riley Mahlman
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Riley Mahlman well ahead of where he belonged. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
