Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Bears turned the phones into found money: B.

The Kitan Crawford selection is the head-turner. The Bears reached 53 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In Round 1, Pick 22 they get a mismatch in the passing game at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick39 Rnd2 Donovan Ezeiruaku
They paid a round early for Donovan Ezeiruaku in pick 39, more than the board wanted. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick41 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
A premium they did not need to pay, TreVeyon Henderson a notch or two before his time. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick72 Rnd3 Demetrius Knight Jr.
They let Demetrius Knight Jr. come to them and pounced at the Round 3 slot. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick195 Rnd6 Kitan Crawford
Kitan Crawford at the 195th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick201 Rnd6 Desmond Watson
A real head-scratcher, Desmond Watson in No. 201 is miles ahead of his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick233 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
They took Isaac TeSlaa at par in the 233rd overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
