Grades: 2012 NFL Draft Round 1 - NFL - CBSSports.com - NFLDraftScout.com
No. 19: Bears select: Shea McClellin, OLB, Boise State
He is a good football player, but he will have to play with his hand down in this defense. He has done that before, but some saw him as an outside rush linebacker.
Grade B
No. 45: Bears select: Alshon Jeffery, WR, South Carolina
They need receivers, but what are they getting, a 235-pound guy or a 215-pound player. He doesn't have speed, which they need opposite Brandon Marshall. Why him?
Grade C
No. 79: Bears select: Brandon Hardin, FS, Oregon State
Can play corner and safety. He missed all of last season, but he has cover skills. That's what you need at safety. Solid pick.
Grade B
No. 111: Bears select: Evan Rodriguez, FB, Temple
Rodriguez brings a Swiss Army Knife skillset as a blocker and receiver as well as a thick build and fluid athleticism. Mike Martz did his best to kill of the tight end position in Chicago, but Rodriguez could bring it back to life.
Grade A-
No. 184: Bears select: Isaiah Frey, CB, Nevada
Frey looks the part with good size and speed, but likely lacks the technique and coverage skills to help the Bears. No word on whether he is related to Walder Frey from Game of Thrones.
Grade C-
No. 220: Bears select: Greg McCoy, CB, TCU
A cog in the Horned Frogs' 2010 Rose Bowl squad, McCoy is a willing tackler who can make an impact on special teams but may lack the coverage instincts to stick in a regular defensive role for Chicago.
Grade C+
