Chicago Bears Safety Prospects

The Bears may look to add a safety this offseason. Currently, they need more depth, ideally with someone who has special teams experience. This year's draft class offers decent depth at the position, and every year, there are unknown safeties who excel in the league. If the value is right, the Bears should consider selecting one in the third round or later. Let’s explore some potential targets. You can find our video breakdowns, scouting reports, mock drafts, and other content on the Building The Board homepage!

Since the end of the regular season, the Building The Board team has worked hard to build a draft board for the Bears. This board accounts for scheme fit, draft preferences from previous classes, and positional needs.

Our scouts have been reviewing players available in the 2025 NFL Draft, aiming to create a final top-100 draft board for the Bears. In the latest installment of our podcast, Building The Board, we discussed our initial batch of players, including some safety prospects the Bears should consider.

• Malaki Starks -- Georgia
• Kevin Winston Jr. -- Penn State
• Sebastian Castro -- Iowa
• Xavier Watts -- Notre Dame
• Nick Emmanwori -- South Carolina
• Malachi Moore -- Alabama
• Billy Bowman Jr. -- Oklahoma
• Andrew Mukuba -- Texas
• Lathan Ransom -- Ohio State
