Chicago Bears trade David Montgomery in this 2022 mock draft

To round out there draft in the fifth round, the Bears go back to the cornerback position with LSU starter Cordale Flott.

Coming into the draft, the Bears were sitting in a tough spot with Jaylon Johnson, Thomas Graham Jr. and newly-signed slot cornerback Tavon Young. Other than those three, the Bears have zero depth. Now having drafted Taylor-Britt and adding Flott, the depth here looks much better.

Playing at a school like LSU, Flott went up against some stiff competition. Even though his counterpart, Derek Stingly Jr., took on the heftier assignments, Flott held his own.

Flott has a long, lanky frame which appeared to have needed a bit more mass added prior to his pro day. During that workout, Flott looked as though he did indeed a little mass, which was one of the main concerns about him transitioning to the NFL.

Although he may be a tad undersized, Flott doesn’t shy away from anybody. He is an effort guy, which is what Eberflus values in a player. Flott is a willing run supporter and works hard each and every snap in both aspects of the defense.

As a reserve, Flott is extremely valuable. But, who knows, he might battle it out with Taylor-Britt in camp and surprise us all.
