Chicago Bears seventh-round draft choice RB Kyle Monangai (Rutgers) is 'a guy who runs angry' and 'a physical runner who is going to ... do the dirty work (on offense), according to offensive coordinator Declan Doyle.'There's a lot to be developed there when guys run that way. He's a physical runner who's going to come in and do the dirty work and really going to add to that room and compete, and that's really what we were looking for in that slot,' Doyle said.
Link to story Bears | Travis Homer likely to stick Mon May 5, 02:36 AM
Chicago Bears RB Travis Homer is a 'relatively secure' pick to make the 53-man roster, in the opinion of The Chicago Tribune's Brad Biggs, who notes that it is Homer's special teams ability that makes him a safer selection to make the club than fellow backup RBs Roschon Johnson and Kyle Monangai.
| Footballguys view: There are still questions at the position with D'Andre Swift, Roschon Johnson, and seventh-round pick Kyle Monangai, but all three are ahead of Homer in the offensive pecking order. Swift is going at a discount as RB32, with the 100th pick overall in current best-balls, and Johnson is available at the tail end of drafts. Monangai and Homer don't have ADPs. |

Bears | Chicago tried hard to land TreVeyon Henderson Wed Apr 30, 12:50 AM
New England Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson (Ohio State) was selected at No. 38 overall on Friday, April 25. However, the Chicago Bears reportedly tried trading up for the No. 35, No. 36 and No. 37 picks and were turned down.
| Footballguys view: In a deep class that included star power at the top, the Bears and general manager Ryan Poles did not address the position until they selected Kyle Monangai out of Rutgers with pick No. 233 in the seventh round. But as we see now, it wasn't for a lack of effort. Meanwhile, USA Today's Brendan Sugrue suggests there are still questions surrounding the running back position with D'Andre Swift, Roschon Johnson, and Monangai, and it remains to be seen what the Bears will do next to address them. J.K. Dobbins and Nick Chubb are unsigned free agents, though the Chargers placed an unrestricted tender on Dobbins, which complicates things for teams interested in adding him. |
Bears | Colston Loveland draws Sam LaPorta comp from coach Tue Apr 29, 03:03 PM
Chicago Bears first-round draft choice TE Colston Loveland (Michigan) was told by new head coach Ben Johnson that the No. 10 overall pick reminded him 'a lot' of Sam LaPorta.
| Footballguys view: The 6-5, 245-pound Loveland, who had 56 receptions, including five for TDs, last season, is viewed as a key to unlocking the potential of Johnson's offense. That same offense allowed LaPorta to catch 86 passes and 10 touchdowns as a Pro Bowl rookie in 2023 when he finished as the No. 1 tight end in fantasy. While Loveland opens as TE21 on the Footballguys 2025 projections, we'll all be looking for signs that he might play a role in Chicago similar to LaPorta's in Detroit. |

We're going to work to see the comfort level under center and how much of that applies. We had a lot of success where I was last, that going under center for the run game did translate in play action,' Johnson told the team's website.
