Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesC- FutureA
The Bears won the night they stopped Mondon Jr. from sliding. Grade: B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Bears were there to profit. Smael Mondon Jr., the No. 113 name on the board, should have been long gone before No. 244.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. The cost of the Fairchild reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

They gave back a little on the phones for the right to move.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the 9th pick they get a matchup problem out wide. A real need, handled.
Pick41 Rnd2 Dylan Fairchild
They reached a country mile for Dylan Fairchild at No. 41, and the board is aghast. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick73 Rnd3 Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks in the 73rd overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick146 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Jake Majors in slot 146 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick203 Rnd6 Lathan Ransom
Somehow Lathan Ransom was still sitting there in Round 6, Pick 28, and they pounced on premier safety value. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick227 Rnd7 Brashard Smith
A running back of that caliber at the Round 7 slot is the definition of value, full stop. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick244 Rnd7 Smael Mondon Jr.
You do not let a linebacker like Smael Mondon Jr. reach pick No. 244 and blink. They did not. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
