Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Bears drew a line under the quarterback search with Williams: B+.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Isaiah Adams, slot 215, roughly 90 picks past where he belonged. It does the job without flash, and the B+ reflects it.

Whatever Caleb Williams becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In No. 1 they get a franchise quarterback. A real need, handled.
Pick31 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In pick No. 31 they get a double-digit-sack hope, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick63 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
Somehow Braden Fiske was still sitting there in the Round 2 slot, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick83 Rnd3 Ja'Lynn Polk
The board had Ja'Lynn Polk higher than slot 83, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. It fills a real need, too.
Pick122 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni at the 122nd pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick215 Rnd6 Isaiah Adams
A offensive lineman of that caliber at pick 215 is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
