Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB
The Bears got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Clayton Smith in No. 254, a good 60 spots before the room expected him.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Sadiq.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Christen Miller
In the 27th overall pick they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick33 Rnd2 Anthony Hill Jr.
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Anthony Hill Jr.. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick38 Rnd2 Kenyon Sadiq
Kenyon Sadiq at pick 38 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick52 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
A slide stopped in pick No. 52, with Dillon Thieneman worth more than the price. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick72 Rnd3 Derrick Moore
They reached into another round for Derrick Moore, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick89 Rnd3 Julian Neal
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Julian Neal at the 89th pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick92 Rnd3 Nicholas Singleton
They did well to land Nicholas Singleton in slot 92, just ahead of his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick110 Rnd4 Jaeden Roberts
A straight-up fair deal on Jaeden Roberts at No. 110, value and slot in agreement. The roster fit checks out.
Pick120 Rnd4 J.C. Davis
J.C. Davis in pick 120 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick127 Rnd4 Logan Jones
Logan Jones at the Round 4 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick128 Rnd4 Skyler Gill-Howard
Skyler Gill-Howard at the 128th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick129 Rnd4 Keylan Rutledge
Keylan Rutledge in the 129th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick158 Rnd5 Chase Roberts
Chase Roberts slipping to pick No. 158 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick163 Rnd5 Earnest Greene III
They paid sticker price for Earnest Greene III in Round 5, Pick 25, and that is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick254 Rnd7 Clayton Smith
Clayton Smith at the 254th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
