The Chicago Bears have seven picks in the 2026 NFL Draft, including the 25th overall selection and two second-round picks. The team is looking to fill gaps after losing key veterans and welcoming new players.
Every Chicago Bears pick, round by round, in 2026 NFL Draft
The 2026 NFL Draft has finally arrived, and the Chicago Bears will welcome a new rookie class to the roster this weekend.
The Bears have seven draft picks with four coming in the Top 89. That includes the 25th overall selection, two second rounders (including one pick from the Buffalo Bills in the DJ Moore trade) and a third-round pick.
Chicago saw the departures of key veterans, including Moore, center Drew Dalman, safeties Kevin Byard and Jaquan Brisker, cornerback Nahshon Wright and linebacker Tremaine Edmunds. Meanwhile, they welcomed some new faces to the fold, including safety Coby Bryant, linebacker Devin Bush, center Garrett Bradbury and wide receiver Kalif Raymond. But there are still plenty of needs to address, including on the defensive line, in the secondary and potential upgrades at left tackle and a center for the future.

Here’s where the Bears will be picking in the 2026 NFL Draft:
We'll see if any of this changes, should any trades occur that result in additional or less draft capital. After all, we've seen general manager Ryan Poles not shy away from trade up or trade down opportunities, especially if the right player is on the board. The Bears will be without their fourth-round selection this year after trading for All-Pro left guard Joe Thuney last offseason, but execs and fans alike would agree it was certainly worth it.
The 2026 NFL Draft runs from Thursday, April 23 through Saturday, April 25.
