Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bears let Milton III fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Bears were there to profit. Joe Milton III, the No. 171 name on the board, should have been long gone before the 204th pick. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Reaching for Van Pran left real value on the table behind him.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick No. 1 they get a home-run threat at receiver. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick9 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In No. 9 they get a double-digit-sack hope at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick75 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
They liked Sedrick Van Pran enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 75. The roster fit checks out.
Pick111 Rnd4 Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks at the Round 4 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick127 Rnd4 Malik Washington
Nothing to complain about; Malik Washington went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick143 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
A premium they did not need to pay, Theo Johnson a notch or two before his time. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick204 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at the 204th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It fills a real need, too.
