Get To Know The Bears’ Draft Prospects: Non-QB Edition

-

Marshon Lattimore

Marshon Lattimore is a possible game-changer for Chicago’s secondary. The best cornerback in this draft, Lattimore is a ridiculous athlete, has great speed, can challenge receivers well, and has good ball skills. Basically, he has all the tools that the Bears would want in a cornerback. He doesn’t have “ideal” size for Vic Fangio’s scheme, but it’s plenty good enough, and his skillset quickly makes up for everything else.

He’s battled some hamstring issues though, and they crept up again at the Combine when he came up limping after running his 40-yard dash. If his medicals check out and teams are comfortable that they won’t be a major issue going forward, then he’s a great target at the top of the draft.
