Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bears left with their quarterback, and a B- to match.

The Bears spent the pick that matters most on Caleb Williams, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.

Getting Puni where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In slot 1 they get a passer to set the clock by. A real need, handled.
Pick9 Rnd1 Jer'Zhan Newton
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jer'Zhan Newton. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick75 Rnd3 Austin Booker
They paid sticker price for Austin Booker in the 75th pick, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick122 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
You do not let an offensive lineman like Dominick Puni reach the Round 4 slot and blink. They did not. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
