Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesC+ FutureA+
The Bears did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

Of all the ways to open, the Bears chose the head-scratcher, spending pick 122 on James Williams with running back, cornerback and other spots still wide open.

For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain. They will need Rogers to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.

Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In No. 2 they get a matchup problem out wide. A real need, handled.
Pick10 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In pick 10 they get a double-digit-sack hope at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick67 Rnd3 Zach Frazier
They took Zach Frazier at par in the Round 3 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick75 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in the 75th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick100 Rnd3 Michael Pratt
They paid sticker price for Michael Pratt in Round 3, Pick 37, and that is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick110 Rnd4 Beau Brade
By-the-book stuff, Beau Brade at pick No. 110 squarely in line with his ranking. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick122 Rnd4 James Williams
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending slot 122 on James Williams with running back, cornerback and other spots unsolved.
Pick146 Rnd5 Justin Rogers
A conviction pick on Justin Rogers at No. 146 that the board grades a round light. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick187 Rnd6 Isaiah Williams
Isaiah Williams at the 187th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
