Their No. 10 pick could pave the way for the next big move. Chicago also comes from a deep pool of other picks to maximize their draft position.

Main Event
So much looks different on the 2025 NFL Mock Draft as we look ahead to the Chicago Bears No. 10 overall pick. Many believe that the Bears will draft Ashton Jeanty, an impressive running back from Boise State. A steady performer, he could pair with D’Andre Swift in a new-look Chicago offensive line.
The Bears could be looking to draft safety Xavier Watts from Notre Dame in the second round. He doesn’t have to start immediately, but he has starter potential in the future, especially after veteran Kevin Byard’s contract runs out.
Later in the draft, Minnesota offensive tackle Aireontae Ersery could help upgrade the Bears’ offensive line. Ersery (6’6, 331) provides a massive prospect. Further, expensive defensive tackle CJ West, neighboring— from Indiana, would bolster Chicago’s defensive front, with veterans such as Grady Jarrett assisting with run defense.

And with picks to move up in the NFC North and some other areas in the season, these picks will help you catch up with the Bears. Both fans and pundits will watch to see if the Bears’ moves pay dividends in the coming years.
