Draft Grade — Bears

The Bears landed square in the muddy middle: C+. The war room fell hard for Caleb Tiernan, and it showed at the Round 1 slot: 36 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. It lands right in the middle: a C+, no more, no less.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes.
The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
Bottom line, the swing picks will decide whether this ages well.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Caleb Tiernan
In pick No. 25 they get a blindside protector, though the board says they badly overpaid. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick57
Rnd2
Brandon Cisse
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Brandon Cisse in the 57th overall pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
