CB. Ohio State. Marshon Lattimore. 6. player. 30. With the No. 6 overall pick in the draft, the New York Jets take former Ohio State CB Marshon Lattimore. There has been a lot of talk about QBs like Trubisky lately but I doubt that happens. The Jets took Christian Hackenberg in the second round in 2016 to develop him into a starter. <p>This class of QBs is no reason to come off that plan so they can pick a great prospect here. Lattimore is the next shutdown CB that will follow the opponent’s best WR. At 6’0″, 193 pounds with 31 1/4-inch-long arms, he has the size and length for press coverage.</p> <p>He has the feet and hips to play off coverage and running a 4.36 40, he has makeup speed. Lattimore can also defend the jump ball well with his 38-inch vertical leap, HC Todd Bowles loves to blitz all day and play man coverage behind it, putting pressure on his corners.</p> <p>And he just released one of the greatest press-man-coverage CBs of his generation in Darrelle Revis. Lattimore would go in, handle everything very well and have a big, immediate impact. So as Lattimore fills in for Revis, he’ll allow the Jets to keep playing that style of defense,</p>
