This is why the Bears could take a cornerback high in the draft:

First, they need one. Charles Tillman and Tim Jennings are entering the last year of their contracts. Kelvin Hayden, D.J. Moore and Zack Bowman have expiring contracts. And it's an excellent year for corners in the draft. "There are a number who are going to help teams either as a one, two or three," Bears general manager Phil Emery said. "I would say that's a strength." According to a survey of front office men, as many as 13 cornerbacks could be taken in the first two rounds. They are Southeast Louisiana's Robert Alford, Cal's Marc Anthony, Mississippi State's Johnthan Banks, Utah State's Will Davis, Connecticut's Dwayne Gratz, Alabama's Dee Milliner, Oregon State's Jordan Poyer, Florida State's Xavier Rhodes, Rutgers' Logan Ryan, Mississippi State's Darius Slay, Boise State's Jamar Taylor and Washington's Desmond Trufant and Connecticut's Blidi Wreh-Wilson.
