Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the 235th pick lands the Bears a B, Williams and all.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Kyle Williams got past him. The Bears do not have to explain a thing at the 235th pick. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Lane III has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In the Round 1 slot they get a long-term starter on the line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren at pick 39 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick41 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton slid further than he should have, and No. 41 is lovely value for the running back. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick72 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
A tidy little value on Tate Ratledge in pick No. 72, a step better than break-even. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick149 Rnd5 Jamaree Caldwell
They will replay Jamaree Caldwell at the 149th pick for years; that is how good the value is. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick235 Rnd7 Kyle Williams
Somehow Kyle Williams was still sitting there in the 235th overall pick, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick242 Rnd7 Rayuan Lane III
Rayuan Lane III at Round 7, Pick 24 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
