Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Bears bled value on every deal, hence the D-.

Somebody took the Bears to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it.

For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Overton reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. On value alone, Taaffe makes the weekend a net positive.

Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 LT Overton
In pick No. 17 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, reach and all. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick50 Rnd2 Isaiah World
A tidy little value on Isaiah World in the 50th overall pick, a step better than break-even. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick81 Rnd3 Michael Taaffe
A tidy bit of business in No. 81, where Michael Taaffe graded well above the range. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick89 Rnd3 Nicholas Singleton
No drama and no debate, Nicholas Singleton went about where he belonged in slot 89. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick124 Rnd4 Zachariah Branch
Zachariah Branch in Round 4, Pick 24 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It fills a real need, too.
Pick157 Rnd5 Connor Tollison
They jumped the gun on Connor Tollison, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The roster fit checks out.
