March is almost over as the 2025 NFL offseason continues. There’s officially less than a month remaining before the upcoming NFL draft, and a lot of Chicago Bears fans are eager to see what general manager Ryan Poles has planned for the team’s seven picks — especially the No. 10 overall selection.
One upcoming first-round prospect that Bears fans are eyeing is Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty. Rumors are swirling that veteran RB D’Andre Swift could be on his way out of Chicago following a disappointing 2024 performance, and it goes without saying that Jeanty — one of this year’s top rushing prospects — would be more than a suitable replacement.
But as much as the fanbase would love to hear Jeanty’s name called at No. 10 next month, it turns out the Bears might not think that highly of him after all.

Wednesday marked Boise State’s pro day, and Audacy Sports’ Bill Zimmerman reported that the Bears were not “well-represented” when it came to scouting Jeanty. Even though interest levels can change, the fact that RB coach Eric Bieniemy wasn’t in attendance suggests that Chicago likely doesn’t have serious plans to draft the Broncos prospect.
