Chicago Bears add this defensive lineman in PFF’s recent NFL mock draft

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Dennis Allen spoke very highly of Kyler Gordon and how the cornerback could be used on defense.

Now that the Chicago Bears are officially eliminated from the playoffs after their overtime loss to the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC Divisional Round, it is officially time to look at mock drafts. The team has some clear needs heading into the 2026 season and it will be intriguing to see how the front office addresses them. With the team now locked into the 25th pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, we can begin to assess who should be available when they are on the clock. Let’s take a look at what one mock draft has them doing with their first-round selection.

The Chicago Bears address the defensive line in this mock draft

Following the Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs, Pro Football Focus’s Gordon McGuinness posted a one-round 2026 mock draft. With the 25th pick, he had the Bears drafting Georgia Bulldogs defensive lineman Christen Miller and wrote the following about the selection:

“The Bears could benefit from some reinforcements against the run, and Miller should be able to make an impact in that regard from day one. He earned a 90.2 PFF run-defense grade in 2025. While his 70.0 PFF pass-rush grade is far from bad, he will likely be most valuable in the run game as an NFL player.”

Miller has already officially declared for the 2026 NFL Draft and decided to forgo his senior year with the Bulldogs. The 6-foot-4, 305-pound defensive lineman has posted 64 tackles (31 solo, 33 assisted) with one pass deflection and four sacks in his four years (43 games) in Athens. He only played in three of those seasons as he redshirted in 2022 before rotating in the lineup in 2023 before becoming a two-year starter.

According to Mel Kiper Jr, the 20256 AP All-SEC first-team star is the sixth-ranked defensive tackle in the draft class. This would be a welcome addition as almost every single mock draft has the Bears selecting a defensive lineman. With free agents across the defensive line this offseason for the team and finishing with the third-fewest sacks (24) during the regular season, drafting Miller would be an excellent decision by general manager Ryan Poles.
