The Chicago Bears are on the verge of history and the anticipation is building for the inevitable selection of quarterback Caleb Williams first overall in the 2024 NFL Draft. But the Bears have more than just that pick and one fan-favorite player will be in the building to announce Chicago's selection. Charles 'Peanut' Tillman will announce the Bears third-round pick on Friday.

The Chicago native who played 12 NFL seasons with the Bears is one of the most-respected former players this organization has ever seen. NFL Insider, Ian Rapoport, posted the entire list of presenters for the second day of the draft. 

Peanut will take the stage in Detroit to announce the presumed 75th pick in the NFL Draft unless the Bears trade out of that spot in the third round.
