The Broncos' defense is a base 4-3 Cover 2 with principles of Cover 3, focusing on zone coverage and limited blitzing.
Year 1 as a rotational safety, specializing in nickel coverage and sub-packages; ceiling as a starting box safety in a zone-heavy scheme.
Man-heavy schemes that frequently ask safeties to lock up receivers one-on-one.
Cox's versatility in zone schemes and willingness to play near the line of scrimmage make him a good fit for Denver's varied four-down approach.
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.
