Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB+
The Bears kept it disciplined and banked a B.

The Bears clearly saw something nobody else did in Tate Ratledge, taking him 32 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Mickens. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Job largely done: interior defensive lineman settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Armand Membou
In the Round 1 slot they get an anchor for the offensive line. A real need, handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
Value said wait; Tate Ratledge in pick 39 says they were not listening. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick55 Rnd2 Kaleb Johnson
Kaleb Johnson at No. 55 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick125 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. at slot 125 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick148 Rnd5 Ty Robinson
A conviction pick on Ty Robinson at the 148th pick that the board grades a round light. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick158 Rnd5 Nick Nash
Nick Nash at Round 5, Pick 20 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick187 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
They took JJ Pegues at par in the 187th pick, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick233 Rnd7 R.J. Mickens
Taking R.J. Mickens in the Round 7 slot is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick240 Rnd7 Jeremy Crawshaw
Jeremy Crawshaw at pick No. 240 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
