The Dallas Cowboys primarily employ a one-gap 4-3 penetrating front with extensive use of Cover 1 and Cover 3 concepts.
Initially rotational as a rookie, providing depth behind established veterans, with a ceiling to develop into a consistent starter setting the edge and generating interior pressure on passing downs.
A true two-gap 3-4 defense where his primary responsibility would be to occupy blockers rather than penetrate.
A strong, athletic defensive end with the ideal size and power to fit as a hand-in-the-dirt 4-3 defensive end, excelling as an edge setter and generating push up the middle.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
