Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueA NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Bears won the night they stopped Mills from sliding. Grade: A-.

Somebody in pick No. 215 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Bears sat still while Rylie Mills, the No. 96 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

If Foster pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

Bottom line, they did the job about as well as it can be done.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Will Campbell
A slide stopped in pick 17, with Will Campbell worth more than the price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick33 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
Nice patience on Jack Sawyer, who had no business lasting to No. 33. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick43 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
They robbed the room for Malaki Starks here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick48 Rnd2 Evan Stewart
The board fumbled Evan Stewart all the way to the Round 2 slot, and they scooped it up. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick73 Rnd3 Tyleik Williams
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at slot 73 is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick87 Rnd3 Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland in Round 3, Pick 23 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick105 Rnd4 Jabbar Muhammad
Somehow Jabbar Muhammad was still sitting there in the 105th overall pick, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick107 Rnd4 Tre Harris
Steal is underselling it; Tre Harris at pick No. 107 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick113 Rnd4 Ashton Gillotte
A top-tier edge rusher at a bargain, Ashton Gillotte in the 113th pick, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick119 Rnd4 Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton in pick No. 119 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick137 Rnd5 Bryce Foster
Bryce Foster at the 137th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick169 Rnd6 Sebastian Castro
Sebastian Castro at slot 169 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick171 Rnd6 Jonah Monheim
Taking Jonah Monheim in Round 6, Pick 11 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick189 Rnd6 Jason Henderson
You do not let a linebacker like Jason Henderson reach No. 189 and blink. They did not. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick208 Rnd7 Collin Oliver
They will replay Collin Oliver at pick 208 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick215 Rnd7 Rylie Mills
Rylie Mills in the Round 7 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
