NFL Draft analyst reveals good news for Chicago Bears’ biggest need
It’s pretty clear that one of the biggest needs for the Chicago Bears this offseason is on the defensive line. Outside of Montez Sweat, the Bears really struggled to to get to the quarterback this past season.
They signed Dayo Odeyingbo in free agency to a big deal but he only played in just eight games and recorded one sack before hitting injured reserve and missing the rest of the year. While Austin Booker showed promise, the Bears still need to boost that pass rush and potentially find more depth.
If Chicago isn’t able to land Maxx Crosby or Trey Hendrickson, there’s still some good news for them.
The 2026 NFL Draft class is a good one for edge rushers

While the Bears could look to add at defensive tackle, the edge rushers in this 2026 NFL Draft class are already being praised. The latest to do so is Daniel Jeremiah who tweeted out that the depth of this class is impressive.
He went as far as saying there are 10 guys worthy of a spot in the top 50 this year.
If you need an edge rusher, this is a good draft to double up. The depth of the class is impressive. I’ve got 10 guys worthy of a spot in top 50 players. There’s another layer of traitsy players beyond that group.

That should be great for the Bears.
Chicago is slated to pick 25th in the first round and if they have their eyes on a edge rusher there, that will likely be the pick. The top edge rushers like Rueben Bain Jr. and David Bailey are likely going top 10 but there are others that could fall to the Bears at 25. That includes Akheem Mesidor, Keldrick Faulk, T.J. Parker, Zion Young and R Mason Thomas are guys to keep an eye on.
For Ryan Poles, fixing that defensive line should be one of the biggest priorities this offseason. Doing so through the draft would be a great way to find some talent not only for this upcoming season but for the future as well.
We should know a lot more about these prospects after the Scouting Combine and all eyes will be on those players for the Bears.
