Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Bears.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Boubacar Traore at the 78th overall pick, a reach of 72 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

Getting Boston where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. For all the activity, cornerback went untouched, which is hard to explain. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 David Bailey
In the 16th overall pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick47 Rnd2 Denzel Boston
The board fumbled Denzel Boston all the way to pick 47, and they scooped it up. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick78 Rnd3 Boubacar Traore
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Boubacar Traore. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick117 Rnd4 Tim Keenan III
Tim Keenan III in Round 4, Pick 17 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick155 Rnd5 Austin Romaine
They barely believed it either: Austin Romaine still on the board at pick No. 155. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick198 Rnd6 Makhi Hughes
Makhi Hughes at No. 198 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick232 Rnd7 Alex Birchmeier
This one needs a full-page explanation: Alex Birchmeier in the 232nd overall pick, miles early. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick254 Rnd7 Aidan Chiles
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Aidan Chiles in slot 254. A need, and now a little less of one.
