BEARS’ SHOCK DRAFT WHISPERS: ARE THEY ABOUT TO PULL A FIRST-ROUND BOMBSHELL?
As the 2025 NFL Draft draws near, the Chicago Bears are once again at the heart of draft-day drama. With the No. 10 overall pick, the Bears are rumored to be eyeing a move that could surprise the leagueโand fans are buzzing.
While many expect them to protect new franchise QB Caleb Williams with a top-tier offensive lineman like LSUโs Will Campbell, whispers around the league suggest Chicago may be plotting a different course. One shock option? Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty, a dynamic offensive weapon whoโs climbed up draft boards. Head coach Ben Johnson reportedly sees Jeanty as a “Jahmyr Gibbs-type” playmaker who could instantly change the offenseโs pace.
But that’s not all. Penn State pass rusher Abdul Carter, who draws Micah Parsons comparisons, has also been floated as a surprise pick. Pairing him with Montez Sweat would instantly boost the Bears’ pass rush.
The Bears are known for throwing draft curveballsโand this year may be no different. Whether itโs a flashy skill player or a bold defensive play, Chicago could very well steal the headlines on Day 1.
Stay tuned. This draft might just define the next era in the Windy City.
