Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureB
The Bears found their guy under center in McCarthy: D-.

The tape said wait; the Bears did not. Javon Baker went at the 146th pick, a good 34 picks before the board was ready.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. They have staked the next five years on J.J. McCarthy, which is the only story that really matters here. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, running back very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the 9th overall pick they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick27 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get their guy under center for the next decade, reach and all. A real need, handled.
Pick35 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson at pick No. 35 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick44 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
They read the board right and Kamren Kinchens was the payoff at the 44th pick. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick66 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
They talked themselves into Zak Zinter at pick 66, and the board did not agree. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick75 Rnd3 McKinnley Jackson
They paid a round early for McKinnley Jackson in No. 75, more than the board wanted. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick110 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
A premium they did not need to pay, Darius Robinson a notch or two before his time. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick112 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
A reach on Kris Abrams-Draine in pick 112; the board had better options right there. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick122 Rnd4 Isaiah Adams
Isaiah Adams in slot 122 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick146 Rnd5 Javon Baker
Javon Baker in the Round 5 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The roster fit checks out.
