The Bears bolstered their secondary with the third of their sixth-round picks, selecting cornerback Thomas Graham Jr. out of Oregon with the No. 228 pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.
Graham opted out of the 2020 season, but his production at the collegiate level still sticks out. With 8 interceptions and 32 pass deflections over the course of three seasons, he was able to consistently make plays at the cornerback position during his time with the Ducks.
A Senior Bowl standout, Graham won over the hearts of analysts and evaluators with his sticky coverage that was also apparent on tape.
