Chicago Bears trade David Montgomery in this 2022 mock draft

In the fourth round, the Bears are able to find a trade partner to move up and grab a guy who may be able to step in and start at cornerback opposite Jaylon Johnson. Chicago partners with the New Orleans Saints to move up 30 spots, here. At no. 120 overall, the Bears select Nebraska cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt.

In terms of value in the fourth round, you can’t get much better than a player like Taylor-Britt. He’s a three-year starter and possesses decent size at 5-foot-11, weighing 196 pounds. The number one thing Eberflus wants in his players, speed, is certainly present here. Taylor-Britt ran a 4.38 at the Combine, proving he has high-end speed.

Taylor-Britt is a team captain, so he’s well-respected in the locker room. He has great ball skills and loves to go for the big play. He’s a strong kid who willingly helps in the run support as well. Having experience playing both safety and cornerback could come in handy for the Bears, too, who have a hole at safety still.

The one area he’ll need to improve is in his pursuit angles. At times, he’s a loose cannon and takes poor angles due to wanting to make the big play. If he can learn to process quicker and take the right angles, Taylor-Britt will be a fine starting cornerback as a pro.

Last year, Taylor-Britt tallied 51 tackles with three of them for a loss, as well as 11 passes defensed.
