With the No. 39 pick Friday, the Bears completed their mega-deal with the Carolina Panther by selecting Missouri wide receiver Luther Burden. To refresh everyone's memory, here's what the Bears and Panthers received in that trade. And here's what the Bears were able to do with those picks entering Friday night:

The Chicago Bears have spent this offseason trying to build around quarterback Caleb Williams. Chicago hired the offensive-minded Ben Johnson as head coach, added three new starters on the offensive line and drafted tight end Colston Loveland with the No.

Burden recorded 1,212 passing yards during his 2023 season at Missouri. Although his production dropped during his final 2024 campaign, he was ranked as the No. 35 overall prospect and No. 5 wide receiver available in the draft on the final B/R 2025 NFL Draft Big Board.
