The NFL Scouting Combine kicks off this week, and the Chicago Bears hold the No. 1 overall pick for the 2024 NFL draft. This week in Indianapolis, general managers, coaches and scouts will have an opportunity to see players work out in person and continue updating their draft boards before the big weekend in April. So it’s the perfect time for another full Bears mock draft. In securing this draft class, Chicago continues to focus on long-term team building, emphasizing versatility and depth across critical positions. The team can add immediate contributors and future draft capital by trading the first overall pick. It focuses on sustainable success, ensuring the team builds on last year and is well-positioned for the future. The Bears also find their quarterback of the future — a familiar name, but one that many won’t expect.
