Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Bears let Bullard fall and pounced. Final grade: A.

The trade table was a mismatch, and the Bears were on the right end of it, hauling in a fortune in surplus value. They executed a plan and it shows in the A.

However the rest shakes out, Bullard at that price is a win they earned. For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain.

In the end it comes back to Brian Thomas Jr., and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick35 Rnd2 Brian Thomas Jr.
The board had Brian Thomas Jr. higher than No. 35, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson at pick 44 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick51 Rnd2 Kamari Lassiter
Kamari Lassiter in pick No. 51 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick70 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
Steal is underselling it; Javon Bullard at Round 3, Pick 6 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick75 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
They barely believed it either: Cooper Beebe still on the board at the Round 3 slot. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick105 Rnd4 Malik Washington
Malik Washington is a better player than the 105th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick122 Rnd4 Maason Smith
They read the board right and Maason Smith was the payoff at pick 122. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick195 Rnd6 Jaylen Harrell
Jaylen Harrell at the Round 6 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
