Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesD+ FutureB+
The Bears finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B-.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Caleb Williams is the Bears' quarterback, full stop.

The Smith pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it.

Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In the 1st overall pick they get their guy under center for the next decade. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick26 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In pick No. 26 they get a long-term starter on the line at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick57 Rnd2 Bralen Trice
Bralen Trice at Round 2, Pick 25 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick75 Rnd3 Maason Smith
A wild overpay on Maason Smith in the Round 3 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick122 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
A straight-up fair deal on Theo Johnson at slot 122, value and slot in agreement. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
