Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D-
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureC+
McCarthy is the Bears' new face under center. Grade: D-.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Bears, and the value they bled adds up to real damage. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D-.

They have staked the next five years on J.J. McCarthy, which is the only story that really matters here. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back.

Every board in the league had Orhorhoro lower, and that gap is the story. The Hart pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

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
Pick5 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In the 5th pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value.
Pick9 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In the Round 1 slot they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick17 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In the 17th overall pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick22 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In pick 22 they get the arm they will build around. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick48 Rnd2 Ruke Orhorhoro
They paid a round early for Ruke Orhorhoro in Round 2, Pick 16, more than the board wanted. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick69 Rnd3 Xavier Legette
No edge and no loss on Xavier Legette in No. 69; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick122 Rnd4 Cam Hart
Steal is underselling it; Cam Hart at pick No. 122 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
