Deiondre’ Hall
Hall was a fourth-round pick in 2016 and came into the NFL as a cornerback. He flashed a little bit last year, including hauling in an interception of Matthew Stafford during their first win of last season at Soldier Field. But an ankle injury knocked Hall out for most of the season after that, and then he was arrested this offseason and cited for disorderly conduct and public intoxication. Not ideal.
But he’s back with the team, and Chicago is attempting to try him out at safety. His instincts are his strongest suit, and he’s a solid tackler. Both of those traits scream NFL safety. While he’s leaner than one would like at the position, he has the talent to win the job. I expect Hall to contribute a few INTs this year to a defense that sorely needs it.
