Bears Draft RB Kyle Monangai at Pick 233
2 months ago
The Chicago Bears have selected running back Kyle Monangai from Rutgers University with the 233rd overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.
The Chicago Bears have selected running back Kyle Monangai from Rutgers University with the 233rd overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Monangai, a standout in the Big Ten, brings a blend of power and vision to the Bears backfield. Over his collegiate career, Monangai amassed over 3,200 rushing yards and 27 touchdowns, earning First Team All-Big Ten honors in 2024. His durability is notable, with zero fumbles on 707 touches. However, his 4.60-second 40-yard dash and 41st-percentile burst score at the NFL Combine have raised questions about his long-speed and explosiveness.
In fantasy football terms, Monangai is a candidate for a committee role, potentially excelling in short-yardage and goal-line situations. His consistent college performance suggests he could be a valuable depth piece, especially in dynasty formats. While immediate starting opportunities may be limited, his work ethic and ball security make him a player to monitor in training camp.

RB Kyle Monangai Underwhelms at 2025 NFL Combine
4 months ago
The 2025 NFL Combine did not go as planned for RB Kyle Monangai, as he ran far too slow for his BMI.
Kyle Monangai was hoping for a faster 40-yard dash. The Rutgers product not only ran a 4.60-forty yard dash, but posted a lowly 41st-percentile burst score. Monangai’s 4.39 Relative Athletic Score indicates that there are better dart throws in this draft at the RB position.
Already on the undrafted bubble, per NFL Mockdraft Database, Monangai’s projected round continues to plummet. Lance Zierlein gave Monangai a 6.00 Prospect Grade, which indicates that he has the traits or talent to be an above-average backup in the NFL. Monangai showed that he was able to handle large workloads, earning 250 or more touches each of the last two seasons at Rutgers.
