Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D+
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Bears found their guy under center in Williams: D+.

The Bears lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again. The board pushed back all weekend, and the D+ is the result.

They have staked the next five years on Caleb Williams, which is the only story that really matters here. Reaching for Keegan left real value on the table behind him.

Dixon at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In pick No. 1 they get a passer to set the clock by at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
No drama and no debate, Ennis Rakestraw Jr. went about where he belonged in the 33rd overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick66 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Payton Wilson at slot 66 is the proof. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick76 Rnd3 Jaylen Wright
They did well to land Jaylen Wright in No. 76, just ahead of his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick94 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
Nothing to complain about; Dominick Puni went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick108 Rnd4 Mekhi Wingo
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Mekhi Wingo. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick121 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
They took Johnny Wilson at par in pick 121, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
Pick122 Rnd4 Trevor Keegan
Value said wait; Trevor Keegan in the 122nd pick says they were not listening. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick138 Rnd5 Justin Eboigbe
They paid up for Justin Eboigbe at pick No. 138 when waiting would have done the job. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick162 Rnd5 Nelson Ceaser
They paid sticker price for Nelson Ceaser in pick 162, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick226 Rnd7 Johnny Dixon
Johnny Dixon in Round 7, Pick 6 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
