There is a possibility he can also be charged with crimes related to his actions as an unregistered foreign agent of Turkey, or that third mystery investigation which was entirely redacted from his sentencing memo - though it does seem likely that Flynn will be treated with generous leniency for being the first major witness to cooperate.

You have to give the little fish incentive to rat out the higher-ups, unfortunately. They're recommending a steep sentence for Cohen, at least.
