Draft Grade — Bears
Overall D
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Bears drew a line under the quarterback search with McCarthy: D.

The Bears lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again.

J.J. McCarthy is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. Reaching for McCarthy left real value on the table behind him.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Suamataia falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In the 7th pick they get the face of the franchise, though the board says they badly overpaid. A real need, handled.
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In pick No. 9 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick27 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In the Round 1 slot they get a building block for the line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick75 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
They barely believed it either: Kingsley Suamataia still on the board at No. 75. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick87 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
A real head-scratcher, Zak Zinter in pick 87 is miles ahead of his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick122 Rnd4 McKinnley Jackson
No edge and no loss on McKinnley Jackson in Round 4, Pick 22; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick242 Rnd7 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett in slot 242 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
