Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Poles addressed two important needs in the 2022 NFL draft: secondary and offensive line, which were notable weaknesses on last year’s roster.
In fact, Poles used both second-round picks on defense with the selections of cornerback Kyler Gordon (39th overall) and safety Jaquan Brisker (48th overall). Gordon and Brisker provide an immediate upgrade at defensive back and are expected to start as rookies.
While there’s plenty to love about both Gordon and Brisker, ESPN’s Matt Bowen believes Brisker is the perfect fit for Chicago’s defense.
