As the Chicago Bears continue evaluating their roster, a major question the front office and coaching staff will need to answer is how to rebuild the defense, especially with a limited amount of cap space heading into free agency. The good news is that for a team that has aimed to draft and develop players throughout the Ryan Poles era, the Bears do have a total of seven selections in the 2026 NFL Draft.
On the latest edition of the Picks For Poles Podcast, hosts Usayd Koshul and Andrew Freeman discuss all the latest trade rumblings around the Bears, including the futures of wide receiver DJ Moore, linebacker Tremaine Edmunds, and backup quarterback Tyson Bagent. Usayd and Andrew also focus on how moving each veteran could alter the Bears draft plans along with their first official 2026 NFL Mock Draft.
