The 2025 NFL Draft has concluded, leaving the Chicago Bears with eight new rookies while still addressing their free agency needs. Key positions such as running back and edge rusher remain a priority for GM Ryan Poles, especially with notable free agents like Nick Chubb and J.K. Dobbins still available. Notably, ten Bears free agents, including Keenan Allen and Marcedes Lewis, remain unsigned, highlighting a potential opportunity for the Bears to strengthen their roster.

This offseason saw some players re-sign while others have moved on, such as Teven Jenkins joining the Browns and Darrynton Evans heading to the Bills. The Bears are at a pivotal moment, needing to capitalize on the free agency market to fill gaps and enhance their competitiveness for the upcoming season.

The Cleveland Browns have been diligently building a competitive roster under head coach Kevin Stefanski, despite facing ongoing quarterback and running back instability. The team notably selected former Ohio State running back Quinshon Judkins in the 2025 NFL Draft, alongside other prominent talents like Shedeur Sanders and Dillon Gabriel. This year's success hinges on multiple factors, including the players' conditioning, which Judkins is evidently taking seriously, as indicated by a recent workout video shared by the Browns' social media account.

Fans reacted positively to Judkins’ training, expressing excitement about the potential backfield featuring him alongside Nick Chubb and Dylan Sampson. The anticipation around Judkins is heightened by his impressive collegiate performance, particularly as part of a dynamic duo with TreVeyon Henderson during their championship run at Ohio State. The Browns are hopeful that with the right development and fitness, their new recruits can help turn the tide towards a winning season.

The Kansas City Chiefs have successfully navigated free agency and the 2025 NFL draft, securing an impressive roster to defend their AFC championship title. However, the window for adding talent remains open, and the front office is encouraged to explore veteran free agents before training camp begins. Among the top candidates are cornerback Asante Samuel Jr., whose potential could elevate an already strong secondary; Brandon Scherff, a seasoned offensive lineman likely to fill the void left by Joe Thuney; and Matthew Judon, a Pro Bowl pass rusher who could reinforce the defensive line. Running back Nick Chubb, despite injury concerns, presents an intriguing option to diversify the running game alongside Isiah Pacheco and Kareem Hunt.

The Green Bay Packers made a strategic move last offseason by signing running back Josh Jacobs, who had an impressive first season with the team, rushing for 1,329 yards and 15 touchdowns. However, the Packers' depth at the running back position remains a concern, leading them to consider signing free agent Nick Chubb. Chubb, despite recent injuries, showcased his talents in 2022 with over 1,500 rushing yards and 12 touchdowns, and could provide valuable support behind Jacobs, who played a significant share of snaps last season. Given Chubb's projected low-cost contract, this could be a smart low-risk signing for the Packers.

The Cleveland Browns made significant strides in the 2025 NFL Draft, addressing key positions with strategic moves. Todd McShay rated their draft an 'A' or 'A-', noting their impressive selections, including defensive tackle Mason Graham, seen as a top-five talent. Trading back to acquire extra picks, including a future first-rounder, reflects savvy management under Andrew Berry. With uncertainty surrounding star running back Nick Chubb, the Browns have solidified their backfield with running backs Quinshon Judkins and Dylan Sampson. The decision to draft quarterbacks, notably Shedeur Sanders, adds intrigue as he competes with Dillon Gabriel for the starting role.
