Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Bears finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a A-.

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. The board rewarded a patient, disciplined weekend with a A-.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. The cost of the McCarthy reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

In the end it comes back to J.J. McCarthy, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In Round 1, Pick 9 they get the arm they will build around, though the board says they badly overpaid. A real need, handled.
Pick18 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In pick 18 they get a matchup problem out wide at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick21 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In pick No. 21 they get a plug-and-play piece up front, even if it was a touch early. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins in the 44th pick is fair value, right on his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick55 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson in slot 55 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick75 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
A wild overpay on Khyree Jackson in the Round 3 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick122 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
By-the-book stuff, Johnny Wilson at No. 122 squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick158 Rnd5 Hunter Nourzad
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Hunter Nourzad. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
