Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Bears a B-.

The Bears treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending the Round 2 slot on Shemar Turner a full 46 spots early. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
Kelvin Banks Jr. at No. 10 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick39 Rnd2 Shemar Turner
Shemar Turner at Round 2, Pick 7 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick41 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
The board had cheaper options than TreVeyon Henderson at slot 41, and it noticed. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick72 Rnd3 Isaiah Bond
No drama and no debate, Isaiah Bond went about where he belonged in the 72nd overall pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick148 Rnd5 Jackson Slater
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jackson Slater. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick233 Rnd7 Jermari Harris
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 7 slot with a little surplus value in Jermari Harris. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick240 Rnd7 Zeek Biggers
They went early on Zeek Biggers in the Round 7 slot, and the value did not follow. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
