Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueC NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Bears bet the future on McCarthy. The board says B.

Start where it matters. The Bears took J.J. McCarthy to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. The Orhorhoro reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In No. 13 they get a long-term answer under center, even if it was a touch early. A real need, handled.
Pick17 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In pick No. 17 they get a blindside protector, reach and all.
Pick36 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
The board had cheaper options than Cooper Beebe at pick 36, and it noticed. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick40 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
A reach for Payton Wilson in the 40th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick44 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
Fair-plus on Xavier Legette, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick48 Rnd2 Ruke Orhorhoro
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Ruke Orhorhoro well ahead of where he belonged. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick96 Rnd3 Elijah Jones
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Elijah Jones. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick122 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at the 122nd pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
