1. Chicago Bears

Kyle Fuller, Kevin Toliver, Buster Skrine, Jaylon Johnson, Kindle Vildor

As noted, the Lions are close enough to be in this conversation as well. Still, even after 2019 that was not his best play, Fuller is still considered an elite NFL cornerback. You can debate him and Alexander for the top in the division and Okudah will not be far behind.

However, as far as the NFL resume, he certainly has the edge. The number two corner is a question and with a locked-in starter, the group would be number one with no debate.

Still, in Jaylon Johnson, they have a corner drafted after Gladney and Okudah. He is a top 50 pick and should be number two, but nothing is set for him. Toliver has two strong starts, but that is a small sample for a UDFA at this point.

However, the Bears do have a proven slot corner in Buster Skrine, who saw his play dramatically improve in the Bears defense. Beyond that, Vildor is an athletic rookie, and that does not mention Artie Burns and Duke Shelley who could fill out the roster.

Without progress from Johnson and a down year from Fuller could push them to three or four and fast. However, today, they are the most experienced, and most talented group.
