Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Bears won the night they stopped Harris from sliding. Grade: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Tre Harris, No. 189, roughly 145 picks past where he belonged. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Reaching for Foster left real value on the table behind him.

Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 James Pearce Jr.
In pick No. 9 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick33 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
They let Malaki Starks come to them and pounced at the 33rd overall pick. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
A slide stopped in the Round 2 slot, with Tyleik Williams worth more than the price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick73 Rnd3 Travis Hunter
Travis Hunter at No. 73 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick105 Rnd4 Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton in slot 105 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick137 Rnd5 Bryce Foster
Bryce Foster at the 137th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick169 Rnd6 Jonah Monheim
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Jonah Monheim in pick 169, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick189 Rnd6 Tre Harris
They barely believed it either: Tre Harris still on the board at Round 6, Pick 29. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
