List of Chicago Bears first - round Draft picks - wikipedia List of Chicago Bears first - round Draft picks The Chicago Bears are an American football franchise based in Chicago, Illinois. They are members of the National Football Conference ( NFC ) North division in the National Football League ( NFL ). They participated in the first ever NFL draft in 1936 and selected Joe Stydahar, an tackle from the West Virginia University. Stydahar went to have a stellar career with the franchise and is inducted in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. The team 's most recent first round selection ( 2015 ) was Leonard Floyd, a outside linebacker from Georgia. The Bears have not had first round selections a total of six times, most recently in 2010 draft. The Bears have only selected the number one overall pick in the draft twice, choosing Tom Harmon in 1941 and Bob Fenimore in 1947. The team 's six selections from the University of Texas are the most chosen by the Bears from one program. Nine of the first round selections have been inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Every year during April, each NFL franchise seeks to add new players to its roster through a collegiate draft known as `` the NFL Annual Player Selection Meeting '', which is more commonly known as the NFL Draft. The NFL Draft, as a whole, gives the advantage to the teams that did poorly the previous season. The 30 teams that did not make the Super Bowl are ranked in order so the team with the worst record picks first and the team with the best record pick last. The two exceptions to this inverse order are made for teams that appeared in the previous Super Bowl ; the Super Bowl champion selects 32nd overall, and the Super Bowl loser selects 31st overall. If the franchise so chooses, they may trade their draft picks for any combination of draft picks, players, and money. Player selections Brian Urlacher was selected by the Bears in 2000 in the first round. Rex Grossman is the second most recent quarterback selected in the first round by the Bears in 2003. Cedric Benson was selected in 2004 by the team with the 4th overall pick. Greg Olsen was the Bears first round pick in 2007. Gabe Carimi was selected in the first round in 2011. * Selected with 1st overall pick † Inducted in the Pro Football Hall of Fame Year Pick Player name Position College Notes 1936 6 Stydahar, Joe Joe Stydahar OT West Virginia 1937 6 McDonald, Les Les McDonald End Nebraska 1938 10 Gray, Joe Joe Gray HB Oregon State 1939 Luckman, Sid Sid Luckman QB Columbia 1939 6 Osmanski, Bill Bill Osmanski FB Holy Cross 1940 7 Turner, Clyde Clyde Turner C / LB Hardin - Simmons 1941 Harmon, Tom Tom Harmon * HB Michigan 1941 Standlee, Norm Norm Standlee FB Stanford 1941 9 Scott, Don Don Scott HB Ohio State 1942 10 Albert, Frankie Frankie Albert QB Stanford 1943 9 Steuber, Bob Bob Steuber HB Missouri / DePauw 1944 9 Evans, Ray Ray Evans HB Kansas 1945 11 Lund, Don Don Lund HB Michigan 1946 Lujack, Johnny Johnny Lujack QB Notre Dame 1947 Fenimore, Bob Bob Fenimore * HB Oklahoma State 1947 11 Kindt, Dick Dick Kindt HB Wisconsin 1948 Layne, Bobby Bobby Layne QB Texas 1948 10 Bumgardner, Max Max Bumgardner DE Texas 1949 11 Harris, Dick Dick Harris Texas 1950 Hunsinger, Chuck Chuck Hunsinger HB Florida 1950 10 Morrison, Fred Fred Morrison HB Ohio State 1951 Williams, Bob Bob Williams QB Notre Dame 1951 10 Stone, Billy Billy Stone HB Bradley 1951 12 Schroeder, Gene Gene Schroeder DE / DB Virginia 1952 8 Dooley, Jim Jim Dooley B / E / FL / TE Miami 1953 6 Anderson, Billy Billy Anderson HB / DB Compton JC 1954 6 Wallace, Stan Stan Wallace HB Illinois 1955 11 Drzewiecki, Ron Ron Drzewiecki HB Marquette 1956 10 Schriewer, Menan Menan Schriewer End Texas 1957 13 Leggett, Earl Earl Leggett DT Louisiana State 1958 7 Howley, Chuck Chuck Howley LB / G West Virginia 1959 7 Clark, Don Don Clark HB Ohio State 1960 7 Davis, Roger Roger Davis Syracuse 1961 5 Ditka, Mike Mike Ditka TE Pittsburgh 1962 7 Bull, Ronnie Ronnie Bull HB Baylor 1963 11 Behrman, Dave Dave Behrman Michigan State 1964 14 Evey, Dick Dick Evey DT Tennessee 1965 Butkus, Dick Dick Butkus LB Illinois 1965 Sayers, Gale Gale Sayers HB Kansas 1965 6 DeLong, Steve Steve DeLong DE Tennessee 1966 12 Rice, George George Rice DT Louisiana State 1967 10 Phillips, Loyd Loyd Phillips DE Arkansas 1968 16 Hull, Mike Mike Hull HB Southern California 1969 14 Mayes, Rufus Rufus Mayes OT Ohio State 1970 -- No Pick -- -- 1971 11 Moore, Joe Joe Moore HB Missouri 1972 Antoine, Lionel Lionel Antoine OT Southern Illinois 1972 12 Clemons, Craig Craig Clemons S / DB Iowa 1973 8 Chambers, Wally Wally Chambers DT Eastern Kentucky Bryant, Waymond Waymond Bryant LB Tennessee State 20 Gallagher, Dave Dave Gallagher DE Michigan Payton, Walter Walter Payton HB Jackson State 1976 8 Lick, Dennis Dennis Lick OT Wisconsin 1977 15 Albrecht, Ted Ted Albrecht OT California 1978 -- No Pick -- -- 1979 Hampton, Dan Dan Hampton DT Arkansas 1979 9 Harris, Al Al Harris DE Arizona State 1980 19 Wilson, Otis Otis Wilson LB Louisville 1981 11 Van Horne, Keith Keith Van Horne OT Southern California 1982 5 McMahon, Jim Jim McMahon QB Brigham Young 6 Covert, Jim Jim Covert OT Pittsburgh 18 Gault, Willie Willie Gault WR Tennessee 1984 11 Marshall, Wilber Wilber Marshall LB Florida 1985 22 Perry, William William Perry DT Clemson 1986 27 Anderson, Neal Neal Anderson HB Florida 26 Harbaugh, Jim Jim Harbaugh QB Michigan 1988 23 Muster, Brad Brad Muster FB Stanford 1988 27 Davis, Wendell Wendell Davis WR Louisiana State 1989 11 Woolford, Donnell Donnell Woolford DB Clemson 1989 12 Armstrong, Trace Trace Armstrong DE Florida 1990 6 Carrier, Mark Mark Carrier Southern California 1991 22 Thomas, Stan Stan Thomas OT Texas 1992 22 Spellman, Alonzo Alonzo Spellman DE Ohio State 1993 7 Conway, Curtis Curtis Conway WR Southern California 1994 11 Thierry, John John Thierry DE Alcorn State 1995 21 Salaam, Rashaan Rashaan Salaam HB Colorado 13 Harris, Walt Walt Harris DB Mississippi State 1997 -- No Pick -- -- 1998 5 Enis, Curtis Curtis Enis HB Penn State 1999 12 McNown, Cade Cade McNown QB UCLA 2000 9 Urlacher, Brian Brian Urlacher LB / S New Mexico 2001 8 Terrell, David David Terrell WR Michigan 2002 29 Colombo, Marc Marc Colombo OT Boston College 2003 14 Haynes, Michael Michael Haynes DE Penn State 2003 22 Grossman, Rex Rex Grossman QB Florida 14 Harris, Tommie Tommie Harris DT Oklahoma 2005 Benson, Cedric Cedric Benson HB Texas 2006 -- No Pick -- -- 2007 31 Olsen, Greg Greg Olsen TE Miami 2008 14 Williams, Chris Chris Williams OT Vanderbilt 2009 -- No Pick -- -- -- No Pick -- -- 2011 29 Carimi, Gabe Gabe Carimi OT Wisconsin 2012 19 McClellin, Shea Shea McClellin DE Boise State 2013 20 Long, Kyle Kyle Long OT Oregon 2014 14 Fuller, Kyle Kyle Fuller CB Virginia Tech 2015 7 White, Kevin Kevin White WR West Virginia 2016 9 Floyd, Leonard Leonard Floyd LB Georgia 2017 Trubisky, Mitchell Mitchell Trubisky QB North Carolina Footnotes Luckman was initially drafted by Pittsburgh Pirates but immediately traded to Bears.
