Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesD FutureA+
A passer of the future in Williams, and a B, for the Bears.

The Bears torched the value chart for Brevyn Spann-Ford, taking him 63 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

Caleb Williams is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. The Baker pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close.

They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In the 4th pick they get the face of the franchise. A real need, handled.
Pick30 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In Round 1, Pick 30 they get a double-digit-sack hope, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick35 Rnd2 Troy Franklin
Troy Franklin at the 35th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick62 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kris Jenkins at the Round 2 slot. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick66 Rnd3 T.J. Tampa
A slide stopped in pick No. 66, with T.J. Tampa worth more than the price. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick71 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia in No. 71 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick75 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
Nice patience on Payton Wilson, who had no business lasting to Round 3, Pick 11. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick82 Rnd3 Kamren Kinchens
They robbed the room for Kamren Kinchens here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick90 Rnd3 Jonah Elliss
No drama and no debate, Jonah Elliss went about where he belonged in the Round 3 slot. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick104 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
They read the board right and Dominick Puni was the payoff at the 104th overall pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick122 Rnd4 Javon Baker
They barely believed it either: Javon Baker still on the board at the 122nd pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick138 Rnd5 Ainias Smith
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ainias Smith. It fills a real need, too.
Pick151 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
A quiet steal in pick 151: Jaylin Simpson for less than the market said. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick162 Rnd5 Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe at slot 162 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick186 Rnd6 Brevyn Spann-Ford
They reached a country mile for Brevyn Spann-Ford at the 186th overall pick, and the board is aghast. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick226 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
No edge and no loss on Frank Gore Jr. in the 226th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
