Stock Watch on Chicago Bears 2025 Draft Class

Loveland took off in the second half of his rookie season. While he started slow in the first five games of his second year, his last four games are some of the more consistent play of his career. His stock is up. 

Stock Up

Luther Burden III, WR

Burden was another slow starter in his rookie season who took off down the stretch run. Since Caleb Williams has been healthy he has turned into one of the best receivers in the NFL. His stock is up.

Stock Up

Ozzy Trapilo, T

Trapilo impressed as a rookie by switching from the right to the left side and holding it down. He has been coming back from and injury, but he has hardly seen the field. When he has played it has not looked good. The injury excuse is fair but his stock is down. 

Stock Down

Shemar Turner, DE

Turner moved from an interior lineman to the edge. He is coming back from a serious knee injury and has only played in four games. However, he has not made an impact. His stock is down.

Stock Down

Ruben Hyppolite II

Hyppolite has not played at all this season. He is going to be a potential roster cut this offseason as the linebacker room is one of the deeper groups the Bears have.

Stock Down

Zah Frazier, CB

Frazier never ended up playing for the Bears. He was on the IR throughout his rookie season and was released this offseason. There was not much announced about what happened with Frazier, but the pick was a miss.

Stock Down

Luke Newman, G

Newman is in a similar spot to where he was last season. They drafted him to be a depth lineman and he is a depth lineman. It is hard to stay his stock has jumped or fallen in year two.

Stock Even 

Kyle Monangai, RB,

When healthy Monangai has looked much more impactful as a second-year running back compare dto his rookie season. He has been injured the past few weeks, but all of his efficiency metrics are up. His stock is up despite the injury.
