2017 NFL Mock Draft: First-Round Projections after Week 13
By Tyler Brooke
Even with the impressive dominance of Marcus Peters this season, the Kansas City Chiefs could probably add some depth at the cornerback position with their first-round pick. They don’t have a lot of glaring needs, and this CB class is loaded, so that would be a smart move.
He might not even be the best cornerback on his own team, but Florida’s Jalen “Teez” Tabor definitely still looks like a first-round pick. Like Wilson, Tabor has good size for an outside corner at 6’0” and 201 pounds while also having an aggressive mentality.
Although Tabor tends to guess on routes, his instincts allow him to usually make the right read. He’ll need to keep working on making plays in the open field and against the run, but Tabor’s upside makes him worthy of a first-round selection.
