"The last time the Bears had the No. 25 pick in the draft in 1989, they traded it. Chicago moved down in a deal with the Miami Dolphins, acquiring selections in the second and third rounds that they spent on linebacker John Roper at No. 36 and offensive lineman Jerry Fontenot at No. 65."
"Given how this class is constructed and what we know about General Manager Ryan Poles' willingness to be creative on draft weekend, any of those outcomes is on the table."
"The most recent holder of the 25th pick, in 2025, was the Houston Texans, and they moved it. Just moments before they were slated to choose, Houston dealt the pick to the New York Giants, who used it to select Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart."
The Chicago Bears will select 25th in the 2026 NFL Draft due to their 11-6 record, which secured them the NFC North title. Historically, the 25th pick has yielded significant players or trades. In 1989, the Bears traded their 25th pick to the Miami Dolphins, acquiring valuable selections. Recent trends show that teams often trade this pick for additional assets.
