Overall

FutureA+
The Bears worked the phones like thieves and earned a A-. The Bears looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Drew Kendall at slot 256 regardless, 111 picks early. It holds up to a second look, which is why it earns the A-.
Getting Edwards where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. The phones were where this weekend was really won.
The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
Add it up and this is about as clean as a draft weekend gets.
Pick Analysis
Pick39
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker at Round 2, Pick 7 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick44
Rnd2
Alfred Collins
A reach for Alfred Collins in No. 44; a little patience would have been rewarded. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick49
Rnd2
Bradyn Swinson
Bradyn Swinson in the 49th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick63
Rnd2
Jared Ivey
They paid a round early for Jared Ivey in the Round 2 slot, more than the board wanted. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick66
Rnd3
Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo at pick No. 66 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick94
Rnd3
Jaylin Noel
Jaylin Noel at slot 94 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick104
Rnd4
Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in pick 104 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick116
Rnd4
Charles Grant
You do not let an offensive lineman like Charles Grant reach the 116th overall pick and blink. They did not. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick124
Rnd4
Jeffrey Bassa
They took Jeffrey Bassa at par in pick No. 124, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick149
Rnd5
Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander in slot 149 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick170
Rnd5
Tyler Shough
Circle this one: Tyler Shough at No. 170 is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick172
Rnd5
Jay Higgins
A reach on Jay Higgins in Round 5, Pick 33; the board had better options right there. The roster fit checks out.
Pick181
Rnd6
Hunter Wohler
Hunter Wohler in the Round 6 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick195
Rnd6
Seth McLaughlin
Seth McLaughlin at the 195th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick197
Rnd6
Miles Frazier
They reached into another round for Miles Frazier, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick235
Rnd7
Marcus Yarns
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Marcus Yarns. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick242
Rnd7
Donovan Edwards
Donovan Edwards at slot 242 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick256
Rnd7
Drew Kendall
A wild overpay on Drew Kendall in No. 256, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
