Teez Tabor runs 4.75 40 at his pro day

Last week, NFL Network analyst Bucky Brooks emphasized the need for Florida CB Teez Tabor to improve upon his 4.62-second 40-yard dash at the Gators' pro day workout on Tuesday. Unfortunately for Tabor, it appears he did just the opposite.
NFL.com analyst Daniel Jeremiah said a 4.75 clocking was the fastest unofficial time he received from NFL scouts present at Tabor's workout.
Tabor ran a 4.62 at the NFL Scouting Combine earlier this month, prompting questions about whether he belongs in the first-round conversation for the 2017 NFL Draft. A day earlier, Tabor called himself not only the best cornerback in the draft, but its best overall player.
If he is, it doesn't look like his draft stock will reflect it.
"The magic number for corners is 4.60. Anything above that, and the alarm goes off," Jeremiah said. "That could have a major impact. People can say the 40 is overrated, but the one position where it matters most is corner. Teams will take his best time, which was at the combine -- his magnet on everybody's board will say 4.62 -- but this was a big opportunity to help himself, and he didn't."
A slow 40-yard dash time is the last thing any cornerback prospect needs, but it could be especially damaging for Tabor in this particular draft because the talent pool at the position is considered to be very strong. Tabor has fallen out of NFL Network draft expert Mike Mayock's top-five rankings at the position, which currently include Ohio State's Marshon Lattimore, Alabama's Marlon Humphrey, Washington's Kevin King, Ohio State's Gareon Conley and UCLA's Fabian Moreau.

Our first pick of the third round would be perfect for him.

He may not get drafted, that's how bad those 40 times are for a CB.

That is just pathetic, enjoy your 5th-7th round status

Typical Florida Corner... Overrated

Pretty sure T. Mathieu could run a 4.75 a day after his second ACL surgery.

By comparison, DE Jordan Willis ran a 4.53 40 at the Combine while weighing 255 lbs.
4.75 is a bad time even for a LB. For a DB? Wow, I can't imagine what this does to his draft stock.

They will teez him over that time. If he stayed with Jalen they'd have nothing. :rimshot:

His measurables are very similar to Josh Norman's all around. Norman was drafted in the fifth round, since Tabor has played well in the SEC for three years I'd be surprised if he makes it out of the third round.

I never got the hype watching him play in college either, he wasn't that great.
Posted on 3/28/17 at 12:55 pm to L.A.
He literally can probably only play for Seattle in that zone scheme. Any man scheme that's a wrap.

Does he just suck at running the 40 and can't time the start right? That kind of drop at his pro day doesn't make a ton of sense.

You're probably right.....but I wish he'd take a huge tumble for mouthing off about being DBU.....

He should have gone to South Carolina so we could call him a Cock Teez.

Malcolm butler ran a 4.62 at 5'9" 187 and he's gonna save our organization
Tabor is just one of those more quick than fast guys. Good ball skills and he's got some size. Tyrann was the same way and he was a 4.51 guy for a tiny CB
