Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Bears a B.

The Bears went off the board in a big way for Kamran James, 43 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. No fireworks, but a solid B.

Getting Haulcy where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get the heartbeat of the defense. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Christen Miller
Christen Miller in slot 57 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick91 Rnd3 A.J. Haulcy
They will replay A.J. Haulcy at the 91st pick for years; that is how good the value is. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick129 Rnd4 Domani Jackson
They went early on Domani Jackson in No. 129, and the value did not follow. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick163 Rnd5 Pat Coogan
Pat Coogan at pick No. 163 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick220 Rnd7 Kamran James
Kamran James at pick 220 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick228 Rnd7 Will Kacmarek
They paid a round early for Will Kacmarek in the 228th overall pick, more than the board wanted. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick239 Rnd7 Roman Hemby
This one needs a full-page explanation: Roman Hemby in pick No. 239, miles early. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick241 Rnd7 Jamari Lyons
The board had cheaper options than Jamari Lyons at pick 241, and it noticed. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
