02Scheme fit
Ideal system

3-4 two-gap 5-technique, a disciplined system that requires stout run defenders who can anchor against double teams and funnel plays to linebackers.

5-technique DEStrong-side DEInterior sub rusher
Best role

Year 1 rotational 5-technique who can hold his own against the run, with a ceiling as a long-term starter at the position.

Wrong fit

A Wide-9 attacking front that prioritizes pure speed and pass-rushing upside from its defensive ends.

Batten's strength and run defense ability make him a natural fit for two-gap systems that prioritize stopping the run.
