Bears select TE Colston Loveland with No. 10 pick
The first tight end is off the board at No. 10 overall in 2025. The Bears have selected Colston Loveland out of Michigan with their first-round pick. Loveland, 21, was a CFP National Champion with Michigan to cap the 2023 season. He was a first-team All-Big Ten selection in 2023 and second-team all-conference selection in 2024. In 2023, he caught 45 passes for 649 yards with four touchdowns in 15 games. He caught 56 passes for 582 yards with five touchdowns in 2024, despite missing three games with a shoulder injury. Loveland caught 117 passes for 1,466 yards with 11 touchdowns in 39 total games for Michigan. He will now become a new weapon for head coach Ben Johnson and quarterback Caleb Williams in the pros.

Chiefs host Georgia Bulldogs star, two-time CFP National Champion on top-30 visit
Chiefs host Georgia Bulldogs star, two-time CFP National Champion on top-30 visit On Monday, the Kansas City Chiefs hosted Georgia Bulldogs defensive lineman Warren Brinson on a top-30 visit ahead of the 2025 NFL draft. Brinson won two College Football Playoff National Championships during his time at Georgia and could be a valuable addition to the Chiefs' defensive line next season if Kansas City's front office decides to take a chance on him. In his five seasons with the Bulldogs, Brinson appeared in 59 games, tallying 14 tackles for loss and six sacks. Despite his accomplishments at the collegiate level, Brinson is a relatively underrated prospect who should be available well after the Chiefs' first selection in Round 1. According to Crissy Froyd of Falcons Wire, Brinson projects as a mid-late round pick, which could put him in Kansas City's sights on Day 3 of the draft. Stay tuned to see if the Chiefs ultimately decide to select Brinson or if Kansas City's interest in him proves fleeting.
