Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueC- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
McCarthy is the Bears' new face under center. Grade: B+.

The Bears went off the board in a big way for Frank Crum, 110 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. More right than wrong, and a B+ to match.

J.J. McCarthy is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.

They will regret leaving linebacker for another day if the season turns on it. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Tampa.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In pick No. 8 they get their quarterback of the future, reach and all. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick11 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In the 11th overall pick they get a difference-maker at receiver, even if it was a touch early. A real need, handled.
Pick21 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In the 21st pick they get juice off the edge. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick46 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
They paid sticker price for Cooper Beebe in pick 46, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick49 Rnd2 Ruke Orhorhoro
Ruke Orhorhoro at slot 49 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick51 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
They left a pile of value on the table to take Patrick Paul this early at Round 2, Pick 19. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick68 Rnd3 T.J. Tampa
T.J. Tampa is a better player than No. 68 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick72 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
Value said wait; Johnny Wilson in the Round 3 slot says they were not listening. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick97 Rnd3 Mason McCormick
They reached into another round for Mason McCormick, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick108 Rnd4 Tanor Bortolini
They talked themselves into Tanor Bortolini at Round 4, Pick 8, and the board did not agree. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick122 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo at pick 122 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick129 Rnd4 Elijah Jones
Nice patience on Elijah Jones, who had no business lasting to slot 129. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick135 Rnd4 Myles Cole
A wild overpay on Myles Cole in pick No. 135, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick185 Rnd6 Frank Crum
Frank Crum at the 185th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
