Draft Grade — Bears
Overall
B-
ValueB-
NeedB
TradesB-
FutureB-
A passer of the future in Nix, and a B-, for the Bears. The search is over. The Bears handed the keys to Bo Nix, and the whole operation now runs on his development.
Powers-Johnson has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
On the needs board they went 2 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick Analysis
Pick1
Rnd1
Bo Nix
In the 1st pick they get a franchise quarterback. A real need, handled.
Pick4
Rnd1
Joe Alt
In No. 4 they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick68
Rnd3
Jackson Powers-Johnson
They talked themselves into Jackson Powers-Johnson at the 68th overall pick, and the board did not agree. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
