Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Bears let Gordon II fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

The board owed the Bears one, and it paid up: Ollie Gordon II, the No. 28 name on the board, sitting there at No. 148 like a gift left on the doorstep.

They are betting Caldwell proves the room right and everyone else wrong. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 James Pearce Jr.
In pick No. 20 they get juice off the edge at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Jabbar Muhammad
No edge and no loss on Jabbar Muhammad in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick52 Rnd2 Josh Conerly Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Josh Conerly Jr. at slot 52, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick84 Rnd3 Clay Webb
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Clay Webb in the 84th pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick110 Rnd4 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
They barely believed it either: Jamon Dumas-Johnson still on the board at the 110th overall pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick116 Rnd4 Jamaree Caldwell
A reach on Jamaree Caldwell in Round 4, Pick 20; the board had better options right there. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick148 Rnd5 Ollie Gordon II
Ollie Gordon II at No. 148 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick180 Rnd6 Dane Key
A quiet steal in pick 180: Dane Key for less than the market said. It fills a real need, too.
Pick182 Rnd6 Reuben Fatheree II
The board had Reuben Fatheree II higher than the 182nd pick, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
