The highly anticipated 2025 NFL Draft is just a few months away as we enter the beginning of February. Many teams around the league are preparing for unpredictable results, as there has been lots of movement on big boards as the combine nears. The Chicago Bears will again have another top-10 pick, as they’ll be picking tenth overall in the first round.
With it being a year in which there is no surefire number-one pick, things could get interesting in late April.
Many speculate that the tenth-overall selection could get used on a much-needed offensive lineman, EDGE rusher, or even another piece on offense. With new head coach Ben Johnson leading the charge, the philosophy will surely change when it comes to scouting and ultimately making selections during the draft.
What strategy will Chicago Bears GM Ryan Poles have in this season’s upcoming draft?

With there being plenty of overall talent in this year’s draft pool, the Bears will have plenty of tough decisions to make going forward. They spent their first overall selection in the 2024 draft on QB Caleb Williams, and he will need some protection up front if the team wants to see him develop more in 2025.
At this point, the Bears hold eight picks in the 2025 NFL Draft, you can take a look at the ones we’ll be picking for below. They hold no pick in the fourth, two in the second, and two in the seventh.
- No. 10 overall (first round)
- No. 39 overall (via Carolina) (second round)
- No. 41 overall (second round)
- No. 72 overall (third round)
- No. 149 overall (projected) (fifth round)
The 5-7 round selections will be announced at a later time. For this mock draft, there will be no trades, and it will be conducted using the NFL Mock Draft Simulator linked here. Let’s dive right into it.
