The Chicago Bears have scouted the No. 10 overall pick for months. Now, they've made their choice.
With the tenth pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, the Chicago Bears have selected Colston Loveland, a tight end from Michigan.
Loveland caught 56 passes for 582 yards and five touchdowns for the Wolverines last year.
What this means for the Bears
After rumors that the Bears would trade up from No. 10 overall to make their pick, general manager Ryan Poles stood pat at 10.
The Bears opted to let the first nine picks of the NFL Draft fall before making their move. Instead of trading draft capital away to get someone, they let the chaos in front of them ensue.
As the dust settled, the Bears got their guy and they didn't need to trade up to get their guy.
