Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Bears and Woodson: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Craig Woodson got past him. The Bears do not have to explain a thing at pick 233. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. They will need Smith to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

Running back was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In slot 10 they get a centerpiece for the ground game at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Nick Emmanwori in pick No. 39, plain and simple. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick41 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker at the 41st overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick72 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
A clean, defensible pick in pick 72 with a little surplus value in Tate Ratledge. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick148 Rnd5 Pat Bryant
Good price on Pat Bryant in the Round 5 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick233 Rnd7 Craig Woodson
They will replay Craig Woodson at No. 233 for years; that is how good the value is. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick240 Rnd7 Jaylin Smith
Jaylin Smith at Round 7, Pick 24 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
