The 2025 NFL Draft is the next big step in the Bears offseason, and with it just over a month away, it’s time to focus on potential targets at No. 10 overall. While there are several players I love in this draft, not all of them make sense at No. 10. Some could be better value picks if the Bears trade back to gain additional draft capital. That said, here are 3 players I believe are truly worthy of being selected at No. 10:
1. Mason Graham, DI
Graham is fast, violent, and relentless — exactly the kind of high-floor player the Bears need on defense. At just 21 years old, he can play the 3-tech role and is already regarded as a top-10 prospect on many draft boards. If Graham is available at No. 10, he’d be a fantastic addition to Chicago’s defensive front.
2. Ashton Jeanty, HB
Could Ben Johnson take a running back high in the first round again? Absolutely. Back in 2023, Detroit drafted Jahmyr Gibbs 12th overall, so Jeanty at No. 10 isn’t out of the question. Jeanty isn’t just a running back — he’s a versatile weapon who could make an immediate impact for Caleb Williams and Johnson’s offense. While it’s unlikely he’ll be there at 10, if he is, the Bears would be getting a game-changer.
3. Will Campbell, T
Campbell is an elite prospect with some length limitations, which could push him inside at the NFL level. However, some believe he can transition to left tackle and thrive. Even if he starts outside, Joe Thuney won’t play forever, and having Campbell and Darnell Wright as bookend tackles would solidify the line for years. Campbell’s versatility and high floor make him a strong pick at No. 10.

Honorable Mentions
Tyler Warren, TE – A great pass-catching option with good size and athleticism that would compliment Cole Kmet
Kenneth Grant, DI – Another dominant interior lineman who could bolster the defensive front.
James Pearce Jr., ED – An explosive edge rusher who could help Chicago’s pass rush immediately.
Josh Simmons, T – A talented tackle prospect with the tools to develop into a long-term starter.
If the Bears stay at No. 10, any of these top three players would be great fits. Trading back could also open the door for some of the honorable mentions, but standing pat and landing a blue-chip talent wouldn’t be a bad outcome either.
