Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D
ValueC NeedB- TradesF FutureA+
The Bears drew a line under the quarterback search with McCarthy: D.

The Bears bet big and early on Javon Baker, 43 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

J.J. McCarthy gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close.

They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it. They will answer for taking TE-EDGE early while running back, cornerback and other spots went begging.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and running back is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick 3 they get a weapon on the perimeter. A real need, handled.
Pick17 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
J.J. McCarthy in No. 17 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick20 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In the 20th overall pick they get a building block for the line, a steep price for the projection. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
Kamren Kinchens in the 34th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick48 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
No edge and no loss on Patrick Paul in slot 48; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick75 Rnd3 McKinnley Jackson
They paid up for McKinnley Jackson at pick No. 75 when waiting would have done the job. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick96 Rnd3 Cade Stover
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Cade Stover at TE-EDGE with running back, cornerback and other spots open.
Pick111 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at the 111th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick143 Rnd5 Javon Baker
This one needs a full-page explanation: Javon Baker in Round 5, Pick 7, miles early. The roster fit checks out.
