Draft Grade — Bears
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
McCarthy is the plan now, and the Bears grade out a A-.

The Bears spent the pick that matters most on J.J. McCarthy, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Means. They will need McCarthy to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, J.J. McCarthy and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick No. 4 they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick15 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In pick 15 they get a long-term answer under center, reach and all.
Pick34 Rnd2 Graham Barton
Graham Barton at Round 2, Pick 2 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The roster fit checks out.
Pick35 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson at the Round 2 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick46 Rnd2 Adisa Isaac
A premium they did not need to pay, Adisa Isaac a notch or two before his time. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick75 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. at slot 75 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick103 Rnd4 Calen Bullock
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Calen Bullock in the 103rd overall pick. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick122 Rnd4 Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
Nothing to complain about; Jarvis Brownlee Jr. went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick124 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray in the Round 4 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick132 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
Nice patience on Jarrian Jones, who had no business lasting to slot 132. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick135 Rnd4 Javon Foster
A tidy little value on Javon Foster in pick 135, a step better than break-even. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick176 Rnd6 Jaheim Bell
By-the-book stuff, Jaheim Bell at the 176th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick211 Rnd6 Isaiah Williams
Taking Isaiah Williams in the 211th pick is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick215 Rnd6 Jase McClellan
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jase McClellan. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick251 Rnd7 Bub Means
Steal is underselling it; Bub Means at pick No. 251 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
