Draft Grade — Bears
Overall C+
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Bears for Mukuba: C+.

You could see the war room lean forward. Andrew Mukuba at slot 147 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. The final tally is a middling C+.

The cost of the Bailey reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The trades bled value they could not afford to lose.

They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it.

So much rides on Mason Graham that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In No. 10 they get a wrecking ball inside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
They took Tyler Booker at par in pick 39, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick53 Rnd2 Kaleb Johnson
A quiet steal in Round 2, Pick 21: Kaleb Johnson for less than the market said. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick72 Rnd3 Jalon Walker
They barely believed it either: Jalon Walker still on the board at the 72nd pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick83 Rnd3 Harold Fannin Jr.
Harold Fannin Jr. in the 83rd overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick84 Rnd3 David Bailey
A real head-scratcher, David Bailey in pick No. 84 is miles ahead of his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick147 Rnd5 Andrew Mukuba
They robbed the room for Andrew Mukuba here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
