Bears will draft No. 20 overall

The Bears will have the 20th pick in the NFL draft on April 29.

They cemented the spot in the draft after losing 20-9 to the Saints in the first round of the playoffs Sunday evening. The first 18 selections were already set. The Washington Football Team, which finished 7-9 and lost its playoff game Saturday, will draft No. 19.

The Bears’ most recent No. 20 overall pick worked out well — Kyle Long made the Pro Bowl in his first three seasons with the team despite playing sparingly at Oregon after transferring from a junior college.
