Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Bears for Sabb: B.

The Bears spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Keon Sabb, the No. 110 name on the board, in the 203rd pick.

The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Mason Graham
They paid sticker price for Mason Graham in the 9th pick, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick35 Rnd2 James Pearce Jr.
They robbed the room for James Pearce Jr. here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge slid further than he should have, and pick 41 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick73 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell in Round 3, Pick 9 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick146 Rnd5 Jake Majors
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Jake Majors in pick No. 146, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick203 Rnd6 Keon Sabb
Keon Sabb at slot 203 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick227 Rnd7 Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders at No. 227 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick244 Rnd7 Xavier Nwankpa
You do not let a safety like Xavier Nwankpa reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
