Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
Larceny in No. 229 lands the Bears a A-, Harden and all.

Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Bears came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close. They executed a plan and it shows in the A-.

The Harden steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Bears paired the rookies with proven help, T.J. Watt leading the way.

Bottom line, with Chop Robinson leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In the Round 1 slot they get a problem off the edge. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick30 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 30 they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick62 Rnd2 Jermaine Burton
Good price on Jermaine Burton in the 62nd overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It fills a real need, too.
Pick75 Rnd3 Ja'Lynn Polk
No drama and no debate, Ja'Lynn Polk went about where he belonged in pick No. 75. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick122 Rnd4 Elijah Jones
A tidy little value on Elijah Jones in pick 122, a step better than break-even. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick229 Rnd7 Myles Harden
Myles Harden at slot 229 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
