Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueC- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
Quarterback settled, McCarthy in the fold, and a B+ for the Bears.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. J.J. McCarthy is the Bears' quarterback, full stop.

The cost of the Zinter reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.

The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Julian Blackmon pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the running back spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In the 3rd pick they get the arm they will build around, though the board says they badly overpaid. A real need, handled.
Pick15 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In pick 15 they get a problem off the edge. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy at Round 2, Pick 2 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick46 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
The board had cheaper options than Zach Frazier at slot 46, and it noticed. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick68 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. at the Round 3 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick75 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in No. 75 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick122 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott in pick No. 122 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick151 Rnd5 Jacob Cowing
Fair-plus on Jacob Cowing, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
