Chicago Bears finally address a big need in first 2027 NFL mock draft

Chicago Bears

The 2026 NFL Draft is officially in the books as the three-day event has wrapped up. Now, the NFL shifts to more offseason activities including rookie minicamp.  For the Chicago Bears, they took a total of seven players in the draft, addressing some needs they had on both sides of the football.

However, there is some criticism on who the Bears didn’t pick  in terms of the defensive line. Chicago didn’t target a defensive lineman until round seven, which was a huge need. But now, all we can do is trust Ryan Poles’ plan moving forward in the offseason and hope some how the pass rush and run defense improves.

Looking ahead, with the 2026 draft in the books, many are starting to put out their 2027 mock drafts. That includes ESPN’s Jordan Reid who has the Bears taking a defensive tackle.

A lot can happen between now and the 2027 NFL Draft. We don’t know the moves the Bears will make in terms of the roster but I imagine targeting more help on the defensive line will be a priority.

And Reid apparently agrees. He has the Bears taking Miami’s Ahmad Moten Sr. at No. 16 overall:

The Bears went surprisingly light on the interior defensive line in last week’s draft, waiting until the sixth round to address the position. Moten is an explosive disruptor who finished with nine tackles for loss and 4.5 sacks last season. He has quick and powerful hands to swipe away interior blockers and is a stout run defender who can stand his ground in gaps. Moten needs to play with better pad level, as his aggressiveness can cause him to play high and be pushed out of position, but he could be the Grady Jarrett heir apparent in Chicago.

The Bears would be smart to address the line at some point this season or the offseason. It will continue to be a need barring any big jumps made from Gervon Dexter or any of the free agent signings.

Yes, it’s still early in the draft process but this pick makes a lot of sense right now.
