In the final hour of the Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show, the hosts dive into 'Five On It' with a mix of NFL draft speculation, MLB excitement, and NBA despair. The segment opens with a passionate debate over who the Bears should trade up for in the 2026 draft, with Layla Rahimi championing Texas Tech’s David Bailey and Ohio State’s Caleb Downs, while Marshall Harris settles on Caden McDonald and Mark Grody picks Utah’s Caleb Lomu. The conversation shifts to the Cubs’ 7-2 win over the Phillies, celebrating Michael Bush’s home run and the emergence of Pete Kramstrom’s hot streak, with Ian Happ’s game-winning single also highlighted. The White Sox’s historic trio of Munitaka Morikami, Colson Montgomery, and Miguel Vargas hitting home runs in three straight games sparks excitement about the team’s young core. The episode closes with a scathing take on the Bulls’ 10-year playoff drought and failure to draft or win a series since 2016, culminating in a 10/10 'horror meter' rating. The hosts then play 'Who’s Our Guy?' with each revealing their predicted Bears pick at No. 25, blending humor, analysis, and deep draft knowledge.
The Bears may benefit from trading down to accumulate more draft capital, especially if they can still address key needs like edge rusher or defensive tackle.
Caden McDonald and Peter Woods are strong defensive tackle prospects with high upside, despite inconsistency and developmental needs.
Caleb Lomu from Utah offers elite athleticism at left tackle but needs to develop strength and power to handle NFL-level competition.
The White Sox’s young hitting trio could signal the start of a new core, making their current struggles more bearable for fans.
The Bulls’ decade-long absence from playoff success and All-Star drafting is a damning indictment of their organizational stagnation.
