Draft Grade — Bears
Overall

FutureB+
Williams is the Bears' new face under center. Grade: B+. They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Caleb Williams is the Bears' quarterback, full stop. They moved the roster forward and banked a B+ for it.
The Braswell pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The Smith reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.
The running back spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
In pick No. 1 they get their guy under center for the next decade at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick28
Rnd1
Adonai Mitchell
In the 28th pick they get a true top target. A real need, handled.
Pick41
Rnd2
Darius Robinson
They did well to land Darius Robinson in the Round 2 slot, just ahead of his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick65
Rnd3
Sedrick Van Pran
They talked themselves into Sedrick Van Pran at the 65th overall pick, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick75
Rnd3
Maason Smith
A real head-scratcher, Maason Smith in No. 75 is miles ahead of his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick87
Rnd3
Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
A slide stopped in pick 87, with Jeremiah Trotter Jr. worth more than the price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick101
Rnd4
Chris Braswell
A top-tier edge rusher at a bargain, Chris Braswell in slot 101, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick122
Rnd4
Zak Zinter
They let Zak Zinter come to them and pounced at Round 4, Pick 22. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick126
Rnd4
Brenden Rice
A tidy little value on Brenden Rice in pick No. 126, a step better than break-even. The roster fit checks out.
Pick128
Rnd4
Leonard Taylor III
Leonard Taylor III at No. 128 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick133
Rnd4
Javon Foster
They took Javon Foster at par in the 133rd pick, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick142
Rnd5
Malik Mustapha
A quiet steal in slot 142: Malik Mustapha for less than the market said. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick216
Rnd6
Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio at the Round 6 slot is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. It fills a real need, too.
Pick248
Rnd7
Jalen Coker
The board fumbled Jalen Coker all the way to the 248th overall pick, and they scooped it up. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
