2026 NFL draft

If he is at all soft, the pronunciation opportunities with his name lend themselves to many punch lines.

Packers 3rd round draft grade: F

[PointWarrior]

Bears are off-season Super Bowl champs again? 

Bears playing chess. Pick up a 3rd round talent in the 2nd and gave away a 2nd round pick for less than the trade chart value.

Hell no! Poles better get a quality D-lineman for Kmet. Kayvon Thibodeaux?

[WhiteTrash]

The Bears are flexing on the NFL. Taking a probable undrafted FA in the 3rd round.

They did what????  Sweet Jesus. 

[tower912]

Your chain is being yanked.

The Bears are wisely saving their splash moves for when they move to Indiana.

[Uncle Rico]

There's a reason the NFC North is tied for dead last in Super Bowl Titles since the NFL went to 4 Divisions.  The teams draft like buffoons.

Grades:

Lions: D- Reach in round 1, garbage player in round 2

Vikings: F Drafted a guy with one foot.  Terrible trade with the Eagles.  Reaches galore.  Might be tanking

Bearz: F Speaking of reaches, that was the Bears on day 2.  Assume Poles was with Kash and Pete at happy hour before the night started. 

Packers: D- Drafted a guy Cheeseheads will
Be suspicious of because they can't pronounce his last name and traded up for a guy with a 4th round grade.  Sad!

The Bears off-season now hinges on the Kmet trade. But regardless of the who they get back, the Bears have decided they will try to win in 38-35 type games.

Don't need to win 38-35 when Bears weather arrives

What do you think they can get for him?  Ty.

6th rounder

6th rounder

Ughhhh. 

[WhiteTrash]

They will be looking for a D-line player not draft picks.

I think they might try for Kayvon Thibodeaux. I have no idea if that is doable.

Just like the Eagles with Brown, the Bears have made it apparent they are trading Kmet. Not ideal for maximizing value.

[MU82]

Ughhhh. 

It's fun that you're having a serious conversation with Unk. Or, more accurately, half of a serious conversation. Keep on keepin' on.

[tower912]

So who was actually satisfied with their team's draft?

I thought Detroit stayed more tightly on script than ever.   Taylor Decker replacement, only at RT with Sewell moving to LT.
Edge
Anzalone replacement.
Raymond replacement.
Amik Robertson replacement.
DT depth

It is clear Detroit thinks that if Goff stays upright and Gibbs has a crease, the O will be fine. 

Defensively, it is clear they wanted to get faster, more versatile in their front 7.  Both in their draft and through FA.

They are also counting on injuries healing.   McNeill healing the rest of the way. Reed, Arnold, Rakestraw, Branch, Joseph, Rodriguez.

I will give them a B, with a chance to improve if they actually get healthy.

I would give their offseason a B.

[MU82]

The Seahawks obviously already had a very good roster, and I felt they addressed three of their four main needs.

RB: Jadarian Price immediately becomes RB1. I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up being better than the Super Bowl MVP he's replacing.

DB: Bud Clark probably moves right into the starting lineup at safety, and the team also added CB talent/depth.

OL: Needed to improve depth and did so; 4th-round pick Beau Stephens could challenge for starting RG spot.

Edge: Failed to address this area. They lost Boye Mafe as a FA, and their other edges are either old or FAs after the 2026 season. The GM, whom I trust completely, said the team wasn't done building at this position.

I'd give a solid B.

Surprised bears went offense heavy again.

In Ben we trust

My bears fandom needs claypool at least to training camp for the packers
