Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueC NeedB- TradesA+ FutureA+
McCarthy is the Bears' new face under center. Grade: B+.

The Bears torched the value chart for Tanor Bortolini, taking him 67 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. Call it a sensible B+, earned the boring way.

Everything downstream of J.J. McCarthy depends on J.J. McCarthy, and the building knows it. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.

They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Getting Jones where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
J.J. McCarthy at the 3rd pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The roster fit checks out.
Pick9 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In No. 9 they get a difference-maker at receiver. A real need, handled.
Pick67 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
By-the-book stuff, Patrick Paul at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick68 Rnd3 Jalen McMillan
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jalen McMillan this early at the 68th overall pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick93 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Johnny Wilson in pick 93, miles early. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick113 Rnd4 Mason McCormick
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Mason McCormick well ahead of where he belonged. It fills a real need, too.
Pick122 Rnd4 Tanor Bortolini
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Tanor Bortolini. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick130 Rnd4 Elijah Jones
Elijah Jones at slot 130 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick165 Rnd5 Myles Cole
Value said wait; Myles Cole in the Round 5 slot says they were not listening. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
