Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D+
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureA+
A passer of the future in Daniels, and a D+, for the Bears.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Bears, and the value they bled adds up to real damage. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D+.

Jayden Daniels is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. They will need Keegan to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up.

The Wilson value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In the 5th pick they get the arm they will build around. A real need, handled.
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the Round 1 slot they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A tidy little value on Jackson Powers-Johnson in slot 34, a step better than break-even. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick37 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
They paid sticker price for Darius Robinson in No. 37, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick52 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat at Round 2, Pick 20 is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick75 Rnd3 T.J. Tampa
The board fumbled T.J. Tampa all the way to pick 75, and they scooped it up. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick83 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
Calen Bullock at the 83rd overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick103 Rnd4 Jonah Elliss
The board had Jonah Elliss higher than pick No. 103, and the edge rusher fell to them anyway. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick110 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
Fair-plus on Matt Goncalves, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick122 Rnd4 Trevor Keegan
A real head-scratcher, Trevor Keegan in the 122nd pick is miles ahead of his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick154 Rnd5 Johnny Wilson
A wide receiver of that caliber at the 154th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. It fills a real need, too.
Pick155 Rnd5 Dallin Holker
Dallin Holker at the Round 5 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the tight end. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick196 Rnd6 Kamal Hadden
They robbed the room for Kamal Hadden here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick254 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
LaDarius Henderson in No. 254 is fair value, right on his grade. The roster fit checks out.
