Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D-
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Bears finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a D-.

The phones were a trap the Bears kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal.

Everything downstream of Michael Penix Jr. depends on Michael Penix Jr., and the building knows it. They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Newton.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In slot 3 they get a true top target at fair value.
Pick9 Rnd1 Michael Penix Jr.
In the 9th overall pick they get a long-term answer under center at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
No edge and no loss on Chop Robinson in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick75 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cooper Beebe. It fills a real need, too.
Pick110 Rnd4 Josh Newton
They robbed the room for Josh Newton here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick122 Rnd4 Leonard Taylor III
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Leonard Taylor III at No. 122 is the proof. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick146 Rnd5 Javion Cohen
No drama and no debate, Javion Cohen went about where he belonged in Round 5, Pick 10. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
