The Chicago Bears, after trading away their top NFL draft pick, now find themselves at the No. 10 position. General Manager Ryan Poles opted for offensive lineman Darnell Wright in 2023 after previously selecting quarterback Caleb Williams at No. 1. Historically, the 10th pick has yielded successful players, including notable wide receivers and quarterbacks, which sets a precedent for this year's selection.

The draft landscape is particularly thin for quarterbacks this year, making it vital for the Bears to monitor early selections closely. The more quarterbacks that go before them, the better the non-QB talent available at No. 10 becomes. In a mock draft environment where no trades have occurred, projected choices for the first few picks suggest a mix of defensive and offensive talents, with teams like the Tennessee Titans, Cleveland Browns, and New York Giants looking to fill critical roster gaps.
