Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesC- FutureB+
Williams is the Bears' new face under center. Grade: B-.

Start where it matters. The Bears took Caleb Williams to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

Reaching for McGregor left real value on the table behind him. They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it.

The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September. The dealing tilted against them, just enough to notice.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the running back spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In the 1st overall pick they get a passer to set the clock by. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick16 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In slot 16 they get a cornerstone up front, though they paid up to get him. A real need, handled.
Pick72 Rnd3 Malik Washington
They reached into another round for Malik Washington, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick75 Rnd3 Jonah Elliss
Jonah Elliss in Round 3, Pick 11 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick81 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Value said wait; Zak Zinter in No. 81 says they were not listening. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick111 Rnd4 Leonard Taylor III
A straight-up fair deal on Leonard Taylor III at the 111th pick, value and slot in agreement. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick122 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott in the Round 4 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick146 Rnd5 Braiden McGregor
A real head-scratcher, Braiden McGregor in pick 146 is miles ahead of his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
