Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesF FutureB-
Williams is the plan now, and the Bears grade out a D-.

The AJ Barner selection is the head-turner. The Bears reached 38 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

Everything downstream of Caleb Williams depends on Caleb Williams, and the building knows it. The trade table is where this weekend went wrong.

The Williams pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with edge rusher and interior defensive lineman still on the board. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Hadden at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, edge rusher very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In Round 1, Pick 1 they get their guy under center for the next decade. A real need, handled.
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the Round 1 slot they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick51 Rnd2 Sedrick Van Pran
A big swing on Sedrick Van Pran at the 51st overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick75 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
They took Calen Bullock at par in slot 75, which is nothing to complain about. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick84 Rnd3 Blake Corum
By-the-book stuff, Blake Corum at the 84th pick squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick111 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
They read the board right and Brenden Rice was the payoff at No. 111. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick120 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
A reach for Theo Johnson in pick No. 120; a little patience would have been rewarded. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick121 Rnd4 James Williams
A curious use of the 121st pick. Edge rusher and interior defensive lineman needed the pick; a safety in James Williams did not.
Pick123 Rnd4 AJ Barner
A want over a need in the Round 4 slot: AJ Barner adds a tight end while edge rusher and interior defensive lineman keeps waiting.
Pick143 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan at Round 5, Pick 7 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick197 Rnd6 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden in No. 197 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick238 Rnd7 Tyrice Knight
Circle this one: Tyrice Knight at pick 238 is a fall that decides a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
