"I think (my thoughts are) very similar to what Bob Quinn alluded to,Authentic Darius Slay Jr Jersey, you have the game tape and the time speed and it didn't match up so you go back and keep watching tape,Bart Starr Jersey, was,Aaron Rodgers Jersey," Austin said on Tabor when meeting with the media.
"What you saw is a guy who didn't get run by,Authentic Randall Cobb Jersey, you have to at that point go with what you see on tape, didn't get beat. Handled a lot of guys who are playing in this league. So," he said.
the knock on Tabor remains speed,Stylistically, but Austin admitted that variable isn't as important to him in the grand scheme of things thanks to how he plays the game.
"There's a lot of times you miss when you go 'a guy doesn't perform on tape but he runs really fast and jumps really high," Austin said. "That was the one thing we liked about him. He made plays,Darius Slay Jr Jersey,' then you draft him and he doesn't do anything. I think this kid's a football player,Authentic Bart Starr Jersey,Authentic Aaron Rodgers Jersey,Authentic Jordy Nelson Jersey, he got around the ball. He's got toughness."
Tabor showed those traits in making a fantastic play intercepting Matthew Stafford. Austin watched the play,Jordy Nelson Jersey,[url=http://bit.ly/2q84BD7]Randall Cobb Jersey/url],In practice, and admitted that it wasn't shocking considering all Tabor brings to the table.
"I think one of the reasons he's physical is he has size and length. He doesn't get swallowed up by the bigger receiver," Austin said. "He's able to get in there and really mess with them and get his hands on them and play with them a little bit. He does a really good job of getting his body in front of receivers and making it hard for them to get down the field."
In totality, Austin thinks the game and the traits are there for Tabor to develop very quickly.and Gaston. |
