Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Bears.

The Bears looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Will Sheppard at slot 84 regardless, 24 picks early. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Tyleik Williams
In Round 1, Pick 20 they get an anchor for the defensive front. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
Jack Sawyer at the 33rd pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick52 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
By-the-book stuff, Tate Ratledge at the 52nd overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick84 Rnd3 Will Sheppard
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Will Sheppard well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick110 Rnd4 Wyatt Milum
They jumped the gun on Wyatt Milum, taking him earlier than his grade liked. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick116 Rnd4 Tyler Baron
A reach for Tyler Baron in No. 116; a little patience would have been rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
