Chicago Bears Top Trenches Options at #9 Pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Will Campbell, W. Nolen & More!

[@brodricwells273]

Where ever the Bears pick in the 1st round it needs to be an O lineman protecting Caleb is paramount

[@brianbelden2449]

The Bears need an Offensive Tackle, a CENTER, a GUARD, a Defensive Tackle & a Defensive End and a Cowbell Halfback & they need to aquire standout talents at all 6 positions.

[@JAYChi_Bears]

HAHA!

[@willietheraildog]

I'd love Campbell. We NEED a CENTER if any are there or in free agency.

[@JAYChi_Bears]

There are a few in both the draft and FA

[@WJBearHawk612]

I want Mason Graham. Dude is a monster and we can target edge and interior o-line in the second round. Maybe get that huge tackle Ersery from Minnesota if he slips to the second.

[@JAYChi_Bears]

He is indeed

[@bepps2447]

Many mock drafts don’t have Walter Nolen and Princely going in the first round. If it’s possibly we could snag them both in the second that would be insane.

[@JAYChi_Bears]

mmm....interesting, I see them going early in most of mine. Where are you looking?

[@matthewmontalvo5066]

That gave me a erection (no diddy) if Campbell banks or gram there pick then trade up To get a another beast

[@howardweissmann]

So many Teams tanking hopefully we can get a few picks closer. Abd pray Carolina gets a top 4 pick as we have there 2nd rounder could be very valuable.

Facts

[@yourthaiguy]

The draft DEEEEEP next year with DE and DT. Gotta go O-Line with 1st pick...

[@marvinmcgee4766]

Who? I thought this draft is deep when it comes to defensive side of the ball. Center was an option last year, but they passed on that.

[@yourthaiguy]

@ a lot of good DE and Edge rushers available in 2025. If you trust your scouting team can pick up a good one in the 2nd round. Bears definitely need a center! I wouldn’t be opposed to picking one up with any of the first few picks but think they should draft a Guard or a Tackle with the first pick. Provided they’re in Joe Alts class of size strength and speed…

[@JAYChi_Bears]

Facts

[@GAIKING]

We need a stud like will Campbell to anchor the line for years to come we need a beast on the o line !!!!!

[@JAYChi_Bears]

Agreed

[@ronmoore468]

Great picks! I like Will Campbell but his arms are short and he may end up as an OG at the next level. Thus, I would not trade up for him but might consider moving back and picking up an extra second round pick.If trading back I would look at Kelvin Banks or Wyatt Milum. Draft is deep at DE and DT maybe the Bears luck out get Umanmielen or Nolen in the second round.

[@JAYChi_Bears]

BEAR DOWN!

[@pjwroblewski]

Some excellent choices in your group.

[@JAYChi_Bears]

Thanks sir!

[@chrissmoot7038]

The challenge is knowing who will be Head Coach and then what defense they will want to run with choosing a defensive lineman. That leads me to pick the OT and then the next pick is a Center.

[@JAYChi_Bears]

We need to address that early before we build the team

[@bullmoose-g7m]

My 1st pick is Campbell, our biggest need followed by the next best lineman O or D.

[@JAYChi_Bears]

BEAR DOWN!

[@brandigilmore-parker7673]

[@JAYChi_Bears]

[@justinleemkuil1584]

Yes on Campbell, but still think bears need to focus on interior 1st, especially center, but guard is going to be equally important as we won't have any starters next yr unless they resign Jenkins.

[@JAYChi_Bears]

Fair!

[@terryhelin5199]

It is a great dream who knows what will happen come draft day.😮

[@JAYChi_Bears]

Will Campbell for me too!

[@JAYChi_Bears]

Yes!

[@woodstocknation1961]

We need an experienced proven NFL GM and proven Head Coach to work together. We got a soft no blocking finesse offense. Absolutely no power backs.

[@JAYChi_Bears]

Who do you want?

[@Squish-uj4qh]

Drafting one of the top OTs should be the first priority. Campbell or Banks would be my choice for the #9 pick. Poles should start them at the guard position next year. Then when Braxton Jones is a free agent we let him walk and have an in house replacement. Trey Smith can play RG. The center position is very tricky since the draft is lacking pro caliber centers now probably have to trade for a starting center. Next year we can draft our LG to replace Campbell or Banks who moves to LT.

[@JAYChi_Bears]

Facts!

[@elidelgado3166]

Go get Will Campbell!!!

[@JAYChi_Bears]

Big fan of him too!

[@johnnyy072]

We need a center. What’s our best option? Draft or trade?

[@Elevated929]

Get one in free agency

[@JAYChi_Bears]

Either or. It's thin this year

[@maxjergens]

It does not matter what players or coaches are brought in; the McCaskeys are the culture of losing that the Bears and the fans cannot escape.

[@JAYChi_Bears]

They need to sell

[@jacobcarter18]

They BETTER put big money into a top veteran offensive linemen or defensive lineman then draft for the lines in the first 2 rounds. No late round, hope they work out picks or signing back up linemen again! Go all in on the talent!

[@JAYChi_Bears]

Agreed

[@RWildekrav66]

If available as free agents Bears should look into guards Quinn Meinerz of the Broncos and Quinton Nelson of the Colts . Heck for center check FA status of Creed Humphrey of the Chiefs

[@ryanbarongan1129]

Trenches should’ve been addressed Poles’ first year. All these weapons are worthless if you can’t protect Caleb (& Fields).

[@Dlo-r5x]

We need to take two edge defenders and a left tackle with the first three picks.

[@JAYChi_Bears]

Happy you agree!

[@Jcm1695]

Hear me out...Bears take best OT a 9th overall or wherever they land (hopefully stay in top 10), then the Bears trade back into the 1st round (using both 2nd round picks + some misc. later round picks) to get ahead of the Bengals and draft Ashton Jeanty. Bengals are currently projected to take him as the first RB off the board. The Bears need to get the run game going next year and Swift is not the guy who can carry an offense. Assuming Ben Johnson comes to Chicago, he'll need a guy like Ashton to carry the ball and Ben Johnson will figure out a way to utilize both Swift and Jeanty to run the ball. Together they can be an electric duo like what Detroit has now. If they can get a generational RB like a Derrick Henry or Saquon Barkley, you get a one of them. Poles failed to do this in FA at the start of the year. Getting Jeanty on a rookie contract would be a steal. The Bears need a guy that can get it done!

[@JAYChi_Bears]

Facts

[@johnferrarini8641]

Every pick we have this year should go toward our offensive line. Odds are you’ll hit on one of them. Oh wait, we’re talking about the Bears

[@JAYChi_Bears]

Facts!

[@andrewgutierrez7905]

Can someone explain why we need an OT??? I swear it’s our interior oline that’s been performing the worst by every metric including the eye test. Braxton is flag prone but at least he’s serviceable. We need interior NOW, the tackle can wait until next draft or later in the draft.

[@rizeagle33]

You can get both. Interior guys usually come in the 2nd and third rounds.

[@JAYChi_Bears]

"At least he's serviceable". OT is so important, not saying IOL isn't, but we need the best of the best. Top OT are harder to get than Top OG IMO

[@mikeszenda5822]

Knowing how the bears operate, I'm thinking they'll select the best punter in the first round to compete with Tory Taylor

[@JAYChi_Bears]

LOL

[@022171]

It doesn't matter how stout the defense is if your franchise QB is flat on his back 7 or 8 times a game. 1st pick has to be Oline, then get at least another 2 of them later in the draft.

[@OGlatinoheat24]

We need Will Campbell Jr.

[@JAYChi_Bears]

I am a big fan too!

[@josephwilliams5038]

The Bears need IOL more than replacing Braxton Jones. (I don't see top 10 OT in this draft.) Cambell would better as a Guard. (Short Arms) I'd prefer to trade down. If the Bears stay in the top 10, I will prefer to the Bears to Mason Graham, Walter Nolen, Abdul Carter or James Pearse before an OT.

[@JAYChi_Bears]

I would still replace Jones. Maybe move him into the inside?

[@jeromiemunoz2920]

Cambell has short arms and probably moves inside to OG which I wouldn't spend that high of a first for. Rather get OT in free agency.

[@JAYChi_Bears]

Elite guard. Would you still take him high?

[@marvinmcgee4766]

Will Campbell has to be the first option. Start inside, but if injuries piled up the team could kick him outside.

[@JAYChi_Bears]

Totally

[@clentalexander714]

Wat about safety.......or linebacker

[@Elevated929]

Maybe in like the 4th or 5th round because we NEED linemen

[@JAYChi_Bears]

We need lineman more ATM. But agreed, maybe FA?

[@psygolf7120]

You take a guy you have a firm belief can be an all-pro within 1-3 seasons….period. Three drafts, most cap space…still waiting for Poles to provide one.

[@williamrogers-y2t]

Highly likely they are moving up a few spots, because they have the hardest schedule and basically suck at this point. We need to evaluate this roster construction vs organizational culture impediments to the football side of the team, vs bad coaching. Decades of failure seems to point straight to the top at this point, because after multiple turnovers we end up at the same place, so logic dictates it is a function of organizational dysfunction starting from ownership flowing downward. Maybe fans need to start literally protesting the team at this point and publicly calling out ownership directly!!

[@JAYChi_Bears]

I would love this. What would you trade up

[@williamrogers-y2t]

@ no if the blue chip need prospect fell, then pick, or trade back for multiple picks, due to the depth at the o-line and d-line in this draft.
