Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Bears won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B+.

The Gabe Hall pick is the one that will follow the Bears into the fall. They took him 54 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

The Trotter Jr. pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. Bobby Okereke gives the group a proven body among the projects.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
By-the-book stuff, Rome Odunze at pick 6 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick9 Rnd1 Jer'Zhan Newton
No edge and no loss on Jer'Zhan Newton in slot 9; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick27 Rnd1 Jordan Morgan
In pick No. 27 they get a long-term starter on the line. A real need, handled.
Pick35 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
They paid sticker price for Chop Robinson in Round 2, Pick 3, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick39 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson at No. 39 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick66 Rnd3 Ja'Tavion Sanders
Ja'Tavion Sanders in the 66th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick75 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
They read the board right and Jeremiah Trotter Jr. was the payoff at No. 75. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick110 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
They liked Darius Robinson enough to skip the value, taking him in the 110th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick122 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
This one needs a full-page explanation: Braelon Allen in pick No. 122, miles early. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick146 Rnd5 Gabe Hall
They reached a country mile for Gabe Hall at the Round 5 slot, and the board is aghast. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
