The 2026 NFL Draft is just around the corner, and Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Poles is looking to find similar success after last year’s impactful class that featured tight end Colston Loveland and wide receiver Luther Burden III.
The Bears have seven draft picks this year, including four selections in the top 89. They’ll be drafting 25th overall but have a pair of second rounders after trading receiver DJ Moore to the Buffalo Bills, and there are no shortage of needs to address.

There are currently 24 former draft picks still on the roster — with 13 of those coming from the last two drafts. Tight end Cole Kmet (2020) and cornerback Jaylon Johnson (2020) are the only players on the roster before 2021, and both signed long-term extensions.
We’re taking a trip down memory lane with every Bears draft pick dating back to 2016.
