4. Teez Tabor, Florida (6-0, 201) — Film Grade: 83.0

Quick Take: Tabor is an instinctive defensive back with tremendous ball skills. He has a real knack for making big plays.

Eight interceptions, including two returned for touchdowns, in his last two years at Florida really showcase the impact he can have on games.

In coverage, Tabor competes hard, but this competitive fire doesn’t always translate over to run support. Tabor is a bit timid at times against the run and doesn’t show an assertiveness to stick his nose in the action.

He also appears to be more quick than fast and this could be a concern when facing receivers with top-flight speed in the NFL.
