Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Bears: B-.

For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Bears walked out of the weekend still thin at edge rusher, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

They banked enough surplus on Zinter to cover a lot of smaller sins. The Logue pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. Interior defensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Joe Alt
Joe Alt in pick 1 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the 9th overall pick they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick75 Rnd3 D.J. James
A reasonable price with a little left over, D.J. James in Round 3, Pick 11. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick110 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
The board had Zak Zinter higher than pick No. 110, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick125 Rnd4 Isaiah Adams
Nothing to complain about; Isaiah Adams went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick146 Rnd5 Jordan Travis
Jordan Travis in the Round 5 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The roster fit checks out.
Pick186 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones in slot 186 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick232 Rnd7 Zion Logue
They liked Zion Logue enough to skip the value, taking him in the 232nd pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
