Interactive Top Ten Mock Draft Results!
As we’ve done the last few years, we conducted an interactive top ten mock draft on Twitter/X. We give the fans a chance to vote pick-by-pick until we reach the Chicago Bears selection. It’s worked out that the Bears have picked 9th or 10th in each of the last three seasons, so that certainly helps the exercise.
How did it play out? Here are the results.
1. Tennessee Titans, Cam Ward, Miami QB: 92%
No surprise here, the entire world seems to know that the Titans are going to take the top QB in the draft, if anything, it should be surprising that Ward only received 92% of the vote.
2. Cleveland Browns, Abdul Carter, Penn State DE: 63%
There’s been plenty of momentum building for this pick to be Travis Hunter over Carter, but the fans think that Carter will ultimately be the pick by Cleveland. Hunter is a special two-way player, but the fans believe the idea of Myles Garrett and Abdul Carter terrorizing opposing QBs as a tandem for the next few years.
3. New York Giants, Travis Hunter, Colorado CB/WR: 52%
The Giants desperately need a QB, but if you don’t believe in Shedeur Sanders, it’s just not going to be worth making a reach pick when Hunter is on the board. Hunter will be a fascinating player to see how a team implements him on the team. Will he be a full-time CB and play 50% of the WR snaps, or will he be a full-time WR and play periodically on defense? That will just depend on each team and how they see him, but a player that can help both sides of the ball certainly would be a benefit for the Giants.
4. New England Patriots, Will Campbell, Patriots OL: 43%
It certainly feels like the Patriots need to go offensive line here. Their line is spotty, and they need to project Drake Maye. There are probably some safer prospects than Campbell here in terms of players that project to blue chippers, but Campbell is most likely the consensus top offensive lineman in the draft (some will say Membou), and he certainly should be able to step in and play week one.
5. Jacksonville Jaguars, Mason Graham, Michigan DT: 69%
Other than Ward, Graham to the Jaguars seems to be the most popular mocked pick. I don’t think it’s as certain as the mock drafts, but the fans agree with them, Graham is the pick here. Graham has the potential to be an impact defensive tackle, but the Jaguars also just got rid of a lot of skill position players on offense and have an offensive-minded coach and a QB they want to support. OL or skill position wouldn’t be a shock here.
6. Las Vegas Raiders, Ashton Jeanty, Boise St RB: 65%
Jeanty to the Raiders has been a popular pick here, which probably disappoints some of the Bears fans who seemed to be hoping for Jeanty for the last several weeks. It certainly feels like Jeanty won’t reach the 10th pick, even if the Raiders go a different direction. Jeanty to the Raiders makes a lot of sense because with Pete Carroll and Geno Smith in place, the Raiders are going to look to improve as quickly as possible, and plugging Jeanty into the offense will do just that.
7. New York Jets, Armand Membou, Missouri OT: 48%
You keep hearing about what the Jets want to do to build around Justin Fields. I’m not buying that. I do think the Jets will most likely go offensive line here, but they could also go Tyler Warren, but what I’m not buying is the Justin Fields aspect here. I think Fields is a body until this regime finds its QB of the future. There isn’t going to be one they want at seven, so they will work on the infrastructure around their future QB that they draft in 2026 or 2027. This is a long-term build for New York.
8. Carolina Panthers, Jalon Walker, Georgia LB/DE: 44%
The Carolina Panthers are a little bit of a wild card here. They certainly could use help at wide receiver as they try to build up an offense around Bryce Young, but they also need to build up their defense. The Panthers have a decent young TE in Ja’Tavion Sanders, but he also didn’t show enough as a rookie to pass on Tyler Warren if the Panthers love the Penn State TE. In the end, in this mock, the Panthers choose defense and go with the Swiss Army knife that is Jalon Walker.
9. New Orleans Saints, Shedeur Sanders, Colorado QB: 59%
I think Sanders drops well out of the top 10, probably going in the middle of the first round in a trade-up, but the Saints do need a QB to try to develop behind Derek Carr because it doesn’t seem like there’s one on the roster right now. Sanders makes sense, but the Saints have enough holes that perhaps they should go with a non-QB here and go with a developmental QB in round 2 or round 3. But the fans say it’ll be Sanders.

10. Chicago Bears, Tyler Warren, Penn State TE: 60%
If the draft unfolds like this, I think Warren is probably the best selection here, so I agree with the fans. I think Warren has some versatility to line up inline, but also can line up in multiple areas of a formation and create mismatches. This isn’t a Kmet replacement in my eyes, this would be a TE2 with pass-catching ability that gives the Bears a chance to actually have strong 12 personnel, being they haven’t been able to manage to have a strong second TE in some time.
Many fans like to say that Ben Johnson didn’t use a lot of 12 in Detroit, but Johnson also literally will use the best personnel he has. I think people saying “he did this in Detroit or “he didn’t do this in Detroit” doesn’t matter at all. Johnson’s offense will obviously have similarities but his Chicago offense will be plenty different.
What do you say, Bears fans? Would you have picked Warren in this situation? Give us your opinions on the draft results in the comments!
