Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Bears: B-.

Nobody had Bryce Foster this high, and it is not close. The Bears reached 40 spots to get him at the 105th pick.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. Job largely done: interior defensive lineman settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Harold Perkins Jr.
In pick 9 they get a green-dot type in the middle. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
They paid sticker price for Tyler Booker in the 33rd overall pick, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick41 Rnd2 Xavier Restrepo
They paid up for Xavier Restrepo at the 41st pick when waiting would have done the job. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick73 Rnd3 Rod Moore
No edge and no loss on Rod Moore in No. 73; it is a wash and a sensible one. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick105 Rnd4 Bryce Foster
Bryce Foster in slot 105 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick137 Rnd5 Zach Rice
A real head-scratcher, Zach Rice in pick No. 137 is miles ahead of his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick169 Rnd6 Thor Griffith
Fair-plus on Thor Griffith, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick189 Rnd6 Dorian Strong
Dorian Strong in pick 189 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
