Chicago Bears General Manager Ryan Poles and Head Coach Ben Johnson are set to embark on their second NFL Draft together. Things went well for that duo in Year 1, with the team drafting immediate contributors such as Colston Loveland, Luther Burden III, Ozzy Trapilo, and Kyle Monangai. But even after a busy transactional period at the start of the new league year, the Bears still have holes to fill. With that in mind, let’s look at some of the more promising possible Bears fits in the NFL Draft.

A mid-March mock draft by FOX Sports analyst Joel Klatt projected the Bears to take the Arizona State receiver with the 25th overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. I bookmarked the link at the time with the intent of hashing out the possibility of Chicago taking a wideout in Round 1. But because it felt so far-fetched at the time, I didn’t prioritize it. About a month later, here we are kicking around the idea of the Bears making that happen.
This is what Klatt had to say about his pick:
“The Bears said goodbye to DJ Moore recently, so they could use another pass-catcher. Tyson’s a big-bodied guy, and I love the idea of quarterback Caleb Williams throwing to larger targets. Williams likes to improvise, and he does that well. It’s the perfect fit.”
The best receiver rooms have a variety of pass catchers with different play styles. Tyson’s game isn’t like anyone the Bears currently have, so I’m into the idea of adding him to the mix if he so happens to be the best player on the board when Chicago goes on the clock with pick No. 25.
Jordyn Tyson NFL Draft Profile
NFL Media’s Lance Zierlein said this about the Arizona State wideout:
He’s added size and improved his route running over the last two years, showing he can align at all three receiver spots. He occasionally rushes the route but has the short-area quickness and contested-catch toughness to find chain-moving grabs in high-leverage moments. He’s not a blazer but has enough speed to work down the field. Also, he has the ball skills and body control to win above the rim with timing on 50/50 throws. Scouts say he puts in the time to absorb knowledge and hone his craft. A history of injuries might explain inconsistent competitiveness as a run blocker in 2025. The wiring, versatility and finishing talent point to a WR1 ceiling.

The Fit
This is what the Bears’ wide receiver depth chart looks like right now:
Rome Odunze Luther Burden III Jahdae Walker Kalif Raymond Maurice Alexander JP RichardsonWide receiver is a sneaky need for the Bears. Rome Odunze and Luther Burden III sitting atop the pecking order gives Chicago a 1-2 punch that a healthy chunk of the league would be envious of and will likely keep opposing defensive coordinators up at night. And while I think Jahdae Walker can grow into a serviceable WR3, it would be nice to have someone with playmaking upside whose addition to the depth chart could bolster that position group. Adding a receiver prospect like Jordyn Tyson would be the football equivalent of adding a middle-of-the-order bat to a playoff-ready MLB lineup.
Jordyn Tyson is one of the most intriguing prospects in the 2026 NFL Draft. He flashed big-play ability in college and could provide the type of game-changing dynamic at the next level. Between what he has done on campus and what he projects to do in the pros, it makes sense to see Tyson as a first-round lock and should go somewhere in the top 15 picks. However, there is no consensus on where Tyson could land on the first night of the draft.
© Mark J. Rebilas-Imagn ImagesI’ve seen Jordyn Tyson go as early as pick No. 9 to the Kansas City Chiefs (as if Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid need more ammo) and as low as pick No. 19 to the Carolina Panthers (I’m sure Bryce Young would love another play-making receiver) in the mock drafts I’ve read in the last month or so. That leads me to believe that Tyson is a prospect who could unexpectedly fall down draft boards. And if that is how the cookie crumbles, Chicago’s front office shouldn’t hesitate to make the pick if he is there when they go on the clock with pick No. 25.
If the Bears back their words about taking the best player available with actions, and Jordyn Tyson is there for the taking, I’d be disappointed if the team didn’t use its first-round pick on him. With that being said, my gut says that Tyson won’t be available at No. 25. So if the Bears really want him, they might have to trade up.
We’ve discussed Chicago as a team that has what it takes to move up in the first round if it spots an impact player falling down the board. And while most of those discussions have been rooted in landing an impact defender, I’m open to cutting a deal to make Bears Head Coach Ben Johnson’s offense more explosive in 2026.
