player. 35. Jalen Tabor has excellent size, he’s versatile and he’s one of the most polished cornerback prospects coming out. He can cover multiple positions, lining up outside, in the slot and occasionally over the tight end. Tabor has also shown that he can play press-man, off-man and zone coverage.
<p>From off or zone coverage, he is quick to diagnose routes, has an impressive closing burst and finds the football. In press-man coverage, he’s physical and when beaten off the line, he has the makeup speed to recover. He is a loose, fluid athlete who can match up with both the smaller, quicker receivers in the slot.</p>
<p>Tabor has been taught well as Joe Haden and Vernon Hargreaves have come out of Florida before him. So the Titans would have a good foundation to work with when they take him at No. 13 overall. With the way their secondary is currently playing, this would be a big boost to the defense.</p>
<p>The front-7 is already solid so tightening up the secondary would help them against the Indianapolis Colts. They haven’t beat them in a long time and need to in order to truly take over the AFC South. That’s two Top-15 picks in the 2017 NFL Draft and these picks should send them up the standings.</p>. CB. Florida. Jalen Tabor. 12
