Dillon Thieneman Selected 25th Overall by Bears
University of Oregon safety Dillon Thieneman has been selected 25th overall in the 2026 NFL Draft by the Chicago Bears. Thieneman was a playmaker across 15 games for the Ducks in 2025, recording 44 solo tackles, 3.5 TFLs, two interceptions, and one sack. The 21-year-old also posted elite testing numbers at the 2026 scouting combine, running a 4.35-second 40-yard dash and recording a 41-inch vertical jump. Thieneman is known as a versatile safety who can excel in a variety of different coverage schemes. In Chicago, Thieneman should have a chance to step in as a starter in the secondary right away.
