Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Bears: B-.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Austin Barber, 36 picks early at No. 60. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Hall.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Christen Miller
In pick No. 25 they get a disruptive interior force, though they paid up to get him. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
Nothing to complain about; Jake Slaughter went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick60 Rnd2 Austin Barber
Austin Barber at pick 60 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick89 Rnd3 Zakee Wheatley
Zakee Wheatley at Round 3, Pick 25 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick129 Rnd4 Kyle Louis
Kyle Louis at the 129th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick239 Rnd7 TJ Hall
Circle this one: TJ Hall at slot 239 is a fall that decides a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick241 Rnd7 Jeff Caldwell
Jeff Caldwell at the 241st overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
