Who will the Bears draft at No. 25 overall? (Hour 4)

The Mully & Haugh Show's Hour 4 episode dives into the Chicago Bears' upcoming 25th overall draft pick, featuring NFL insider Brian Baldinger. Baldinger emphasizes that the Bears have significant defensive needs after losing key players like their starting safeties and top corner, making defense a likely priority. He highlights Jeremiah Love as a potential game-changer whose draft position could influence the entire board, and praises the depth at edge rusher and safety. While acknowledging the lack of a true 'one-through-32' star power this year, Baldinger lauds offensive linemen like Vavega Ioani and Caden Proctor as elite prospects. The discussion shifts to the Bears’ stadium situation, with host Mully expressing skepticism about Illinois’ ability to finalize a deal, citing Indiana’s proactive role in offering a competitive alternative. The hosts debate whether the NFL’s pressure tactics—like the April 29th stadium committee meeting—are designed to coerce Illinois into action, with Cam Buckner’s optimistic update suggesting a deal may be imminent. The episode closes with playoff predictions, favoring the Avalanche in the NHL and the Thunder in the NBA, while cautioning against overestimating the Celtics’ dominance.
