Draft Grade — Bears
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Bears bet the future on Williams. The board says C+.

The Bears spent the pick that matters most on Caleb Williams, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape. A weekend of give and take that grades a C+.

The Worthy pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They banked enough surplus on Mitchell to cover a lot of smaller sins.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. On the needs board they went 2 of 8, with quarterback the one that mattered most.

So much rides on Caleb Williams that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In the 1st overall pick they get the arm they will build around. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick9 Rnd1 Xavier Worthy
In pick 9 they get a true top target, though the board says they badly overpaid. A real need, handled.
Pick75 Rnd3 Adonai Mitchell
Taking Adonai Mitchell in pick No. 75 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick122 Rnd4 Jalen McMillan
Jalen McMillan in slot 122 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
