Grappling does not harm anyone, it does not even give anyone advantage to hit them unless you prone them too.
You don’t get a cover bonus from grappling someone, just by them being between you and the target, which they could have been anyway.
Also your plan seems to be to tank your save dc on the best combat ability in the entire game, and the only really good thing monks have in stunning strike...
