Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesC+ FutureB
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Bears.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with PJ Williams at the 257th pick, a reach of 23 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Caleb Banks
In slot 26 they get a double-digit-sack hope. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick70 Rnd3 A.J. Haulcy
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on A.J. Haulcy. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick91 Rnd3 Omar Cooper Jr.
They paid sticker price for Omar Cooper Jr. in the 91st overall pick, and that is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick131 Rnd4 Jadarian Price
They took Jadarian Price at par in No. 131, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick168 Rnd5 Zane Durant
Zane Durant in Round 5, Pick 28 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick221 Rnd7 Trey Zuhn III
Trey Zuhn III in pick No. 221 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick241 Rnd7 Barion Brown
Barion Brown at pick 241 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick244 Rnd7 Brett Norfleet
A reach for Brett Norfleet in the 244th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick257 Rnd7 PJ Williams
PJ Williams at the 257th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
