NFL mock draft from NFL.com sends the Chicago Bears a prospect who's beginning to emerge as a favorite for GM Ryan Poles in the first round.

In PFF's new mock draft, the Bears take a swing and trade for a star pass rusher that would elevate their defense.

In Chad Reuter's latest 2025 NFL mock draft, the Bears target the trenches and land a skill player in his three-round projections.

If this turns out to be a draft more like 2022 than last year, the Bears' and teams positioned by them could be looking at a totally different Round 1 scenario.

Between free agency and the 2025 NFL draft, general manager Ryan Poles has plenty of resources to shore up the team's biggest weakness. There are three (possibly four) starting jobs to fill, and there are no shortage of top candidates to protect quarterback Caleb Williams.

The Chicago Bears have work to do to become contenders in 2025. Before free agency begins, here's a three-round mock draft that could fill their most pressing needs.

The Chicago Bears have plenty of reasons for optimism about the future. Chicago may have finished the regular season 5-12, but they saw signs of development from QB Caleb Williams. The Bears also brought in offensive guru Ben Johnson to be their next head coach.
