player. 30. The New York Jets just found out what Ryan Fitzpatrick is without his lucky rabbits foot. And they are starting him at quarterback because they have no choice. Geno Smith tore his ACL, Bryce Petty isn’t back from his injury and Christian Hackenberg isn’t ready yet. <p>My money is on Hackenberg of the latter two QBs because of his smarts and arm talent. But they won’t win anything as long as so many deep balls get completed on them. Yes, even Darrelle Revis is getting bombs over Baghdad dropped on him.</p> <p>And right now, Jalen Tabor looks like the most polished cornerback prospect in the draft. He’s just fine in press-man coverage, off-man coverage and in zone coverage. At 6’0″ 200 pounds, he has good size and great make-up speed when he’s beat.</p> <p>And to go with his coverages skills, he has great ball skills to bat passes away or get INTs. He comes from a line of Florida CBs that includes Joe Haden and Vernon Hargreaves. So he’s a safe bet to come right in and help the Jets’ pass coverage.</p>. CB. Florida. Jalen Tabor. 5
