Our Lead Draft Analyst Jacob Infante is doing double duty this draft season because you can also find his work at the Pro Football and Sports Network. His latest mock for PFSN is a full seven-rounder for all 32 teams with trades included, so I had to spotlight his Chicago Bears selections.

Jacob has three trades in the top ten, including the Bears sending picks 10 and 72 to the Atlanta Falcons for 15, 46, and a 2026 fourth-rounder.

15) Chicago Bears: James Pearce Jr., EDGE, Tennessee

With the Chicago Bears trading back from No. 10 in this scenario, they still get the chance to land one of the top defensive players in the 2025 NFL Draft.

James Pearce Jr. is an explosive edge rusher with quick hands and the flexibility to turn the corner and generate pressure on outside speed rushes. He’s a technically sound defender who would create a formidable duo at defensive end alongside Montez Sweat in Chicago.

Pearce is one of the fastest pass rushers in the draft, and he would make an immediate impact off the edge for the Bears, who are in desperate need of defensive ends.

Some character issue rumors are popping up, so he’ll need to be thoroughly vetted.

39) Chicago Bears: Donovan Jackson, G, Ohio State

The Bears have plenty of cap space to work with, making it likely they’ll add at least one new starter to their offensive line in free agency. Even if they sign two, though, there’s a decent chance they’ll still need to invest in a lineman early in the 2025 NFL Draft.

Donovan Jackson’s ability to kick outside to left tackle immediately after Simmons’ injury is genuinely impressive. The former is definitely more of a guard in the pros, but his power and agility didn’t look too out of place outside, either.

When asked earlier today about his position preference, he said, “I just like playing offensive line.”

Jackson would be plug-and-play at guard depending on what the Bears do in free agency, but keep in mind that head coach Ben Johnson will often use a sixth offensive lineman, so he’ll find a way to get his talent on the field.

41) Chicago Bears: Tyleik Williams, DT, Ohio State

In addition to the defensive end group, the Bears have a need for a long-term defensive tackle answer opposite Gervon Dexter Sr. With the strength of this draft class at the position, it wouldn’t be surprising if Chicago targeted an interior defender early in the 2025 NFL Draft.

Tyleik Williams is an explosive interior defender with a low center of gravity who can generate pressure on passing downs and eat up gaps in the run game. He’s violent at the point of attack, and it feels like he could start right away at a decent level with the potential to become a quality starter in due time.

Williams (6’3’, 334) has been a solid run defender and would be a part of the Bears rotation in week one.

46) Chicago Bears: Kaleb Johnson, RB, Iowa

With the Bears having acquired an extra second-round pick by trading back in Round 1 of this hypothetical, they would have an opportunity to give new head coach Ben Johnson a strong running back tandem like what he had in Detroit.

Kaleb Johnson is a big-bodied, powerful running back with the strength and contact balance to be the “Knuckles” to D’Andre Swift’s “Sonic.” He also has the ball-carrier vision in between the tackles and the straight-line explosiveness needed to project as a quality starting back in the NFL.

This is a strong running back class, so I expect the Bears to get one at some point. Johnson has good patience, vision, and size, but he’ll need to work on his pass protection.

Here are the rest of Jacob’s mocked picks for the Bears

149) Chicago Bears – Pat Bryant, WR, Illinois

197) Chicago Bears – Logan Brown, OT, Kansas

Brown was a late bloomer in college after being a five-star recruit out of high school.

235) Chicago Bears – Jackson Hawes, TE, Georgia Tech

Hawes is an in-line Y, and his blocking would get him on the field as a rookie.

242) Chicago Bears – Tyron Herring, CB, Delaware

Herring had a nice East-West Shrine game, showing he can hang with higher competition.

What are your thoughts on Jacob’s mock? Would you like it if the real draft fell this way?
