02Scheme fit
Ideal system

Eric Olsen is best suited for an inside zone or gap/power run scheme that prioritizes strong interior blocking and a powerful ground game.

Starting CenterRight GuardLeft Guard
Best role

He can immediately compete for a starting center role, with a ceiling as a multi-year interior line starter.

Wrong fit

He would be a poor fit for a pass-heavy Air Raid or spread RPO offense that demands exceptional athleticism and movement from its interior linemen.

A strong, durable interior lineman, Olsen’s power and football IQ make him a reliable anchor for run-heavy offenses, despite his average athleticism.
