Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D
ValueB NeedB- TradesF FutureA+
The Bears let Jones fall and pounced. Final grade: D.

The trade table was where it all came apart. The Bears shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill. The math is unkind, and the D follows.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. The Robinson pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. Jones at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In pick No. 1 they get a matchup problem out wide. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
J.J. McCarthy at the 43rd pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick55 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul in the Round 2 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick74 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice in pick 74 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick75 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
They took Cooper Beebe at par in slot 75, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick111 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson in Round 4, Pick 11 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick123 Rnd4 Malik Washington
Malik Washington at the 123rd overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick157 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson in No. 157 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick227 Rnd7 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan in pick No. 227 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick241 Rnd7 Myles Jones
You do not let a cornerback like Myles Jones reach slot 241 and blink. They did not. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
