The first two days of the 2026 NFL Draft have certainly been an interesting one for the Chicago Bears.
Chicago got one of the steals of the draft with Oregon safety Dillon Thieneman in the first round. Day 2 took a completely different turn for the Bears, as they went all offense with Iowa center Logan Jones in the second round and, in the third round, selected Stanford tight end Sam Roush and LSU wide receiver Zavion Thomas.
Entering the final day of the draft, the Bears have a lot of work to do, with a little more attention needed on defense, and only four picks to work with. Here's a look at the final mock draft of the 2026 season for the Bears.
Chicago Bears' 2026 Day 3 Mock Draft
Round 4, Pick 129: LT Overton, EDGE (Alabama)
After two long days without selecting an edge rusher in the NFL Draft, the Bears finally gave in to the fan base and selected a potential steal of the draft. Last season, Overton had 40 tackles and four sacks for Alabama, showcasing that he can get to the quarterback despite a deep defensive line there.
The first two days of the draft show the Bears are comfortable with what they got on the defensive line, so they aren't going to force a selection. They still need depth behind Montez Sweat and Austin Booker, so Overton could help out with that.
Round 5, Pick 144: Jude Bowry, OT (Boston College)
Let's face it, this pick makes sense for two reasons: the Bears get a solid backup tackle who might surprise people by competing for the starting job at left tackle, and the Boston College connections are already in Chicago with alumni Ryan Poles and Ozzy Trapilo. On 320 pass blocking snaps last season for the Eagles, Bowry allowed zero sacks all year. A pretty good stat to have for an offensive lineman, so it might be a good pick there.
Round 7, Pick 239: Landon Robinson, DT (Navy)
Robinson was a first-team All-American at Navy last year after racking up 64 tackles, 6.5 sacks, and one fumble recovery. He's undersized for a defensive tackle, but someone that the Bears could work on to shift between tackle and potentially edge. Bears defensive coordinator Dennis Allen might get an interesting chess piece added to the roster.

Round 7, Pick 241: Lorenzo Styles Jr., Safety (Ohio State)
Styles was one of the stars of the NFL Combine with his 4.27-second 40-yard dash and his 39-inch vertical jump, showing that he is a freakish athlete. He might have a great career as a special teams ace in the NFL, and a developmental player the Bears should not ignore if he is there for the taking.
