2 — Calvin Pryor, Louisville

Pryor would be one hell of a consolation prize should the Bears miss out on Clinton-Dix.  He possesses the same speed at Clinton-Dix with a slightly smaller but stronger frame (5-11, 207).  Pryor is a strong safety prospect in every sense of the word.  He’s a great tackler and a physical presence in the secondary, though he’s lacking a bit in his coverage skills.  He would be a great complement to Mundy, who is stronger in his deep coverage skills.  Like Clinton-Dix, Pryor is also a first round-caliber talent who would be a great option for the Bears should they trade down into the 20s.
