5. Chicago Bears OC Cody Whitehair
Last Year: 5
Cody Whitehair is so hard to take out of the top 5. Even he would tell you that last year was his worst but even after last year you have to expect him to bounce back for a good one in 2021. 2020 was a disaster for a variety of reasons. Once he lost James Daniels beside him he had no experience at either guard spot.
From there, he got banged up and tried to play through it but only made it worse and forced him to miss time. However, when he came back he moved from center to guard, and boom, we saw the old Cody Whitehair again.
If Whitehair can lock into left guard and stay there, he is a huge impact player that makes the entire line better by being that rock. Beyond that, he now has a track record with Sam Mustipher and can help there, but also has a potential rookie at left tackle beside him as well. Their development will be helped by Whitehair.
