Bears Fans Praise Colston Loveland Draft Pick Over Tyler Warren for Caleb Williams

The Chicago Bears added another weapon for quarterback Caleb Williams in Thursday's NFL draft.

Chicago selected Michigan tight end Colston Loveland with the No. 10 overall selection, which was a head-turning move since Penn State's Tyler Warren was still on the board.

There was no shortage of speculation leading up to the draft that the Bears could trade up to perhaps target a player such as Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty. However, Jeanty ended up going No. 6 overall to the Las Vegas Raiders, while the Bears stayed put at No. 10 and used their selection on the Wolverines' weapon.

Social media naturally had plenty of reaction to the move:

Bears fans will surely compare Loveland's production to Warren's during their NFL careers since their team could have had either of them with this pick. For what it's worth, B/R's NFL Scouting Department ranked Loveland as the best tight end in the draft and Warren as the second-best in its latest big board.

It also listed Loveland as the tight end who is the best receiver and the most pro-ready, so look for him to immediately step into Chicago's lineup.

And he is yet another weapon for the Bears, who just hired an offensive-minded head coach in Ben Johnson who will surely draw up ways to get him involved alongside incumbent tight end Cole Kmet.

With DJ Moore and Rome Odunze on the outside to go with Loveland and Kmet at tight end, don't be surprised if the Bears use one of their multiple second-round picks on a running back during Friday's draft.

After all, the offensive line isn't as much of an issue after they added Joe Thuney, Drew Dalman and Jonah Jackson this offseason. That gives them the ability to add playmakers in the offense who can put Williams in the best position to succeed as he becomes more experienced at the NFL level.

Loveland fits the bill as a game-changing playmaker, and he will face plenty of single coverage with secondaries so focused on Moore, Odunze and Kmet. Look for him to take full advantage of those situations.
