The Bears will be selecting 10th overall in the 2025 NFL draft. There are a slew of needs on the roster, most notably along the offensive line, where there are three (possibly four) starting spots up for grabs, outside of right tackle Darnell Wright. But they also have needs in the defensive trenches.

In Round 2, Easterling shifts focus to the defensive side, predicting that the Bears will select Ohio State edge rusher JT Tuimoloau with the 39th overall pick. With the 41st pick, Chicago strengthens its offensive line once more by drafting Oregon offensive tackle Josh Conerly Jr.

Who wouldn't want a star-in-the-making like Ashton Jeanty? Players like him will be tempting for the Bears, but it's imperative that they address the line of scrimmage.
