02Scheme fit
Ideal system

In a traditional 3-4 defense, defensive linemen are expected to occupy blockers and allow linebackers to make plays.

3-4 DE5-Technique
Best role

Bailey projects as a rotational 3-4 defensive end in year one, with the potential to develop into a full-time starter due to his strength and athleticism.

Wrong fit

He would be a poor fit in a one-gap penetrating 4-3 scheme where he might lack the explosiveness to consistently beat blockers off the snap.

His blend of size, strength, and surprising athleticism makes him a versatile piece for a two-gapping 3-4 front.

04The evaluation

Selected #86 overall in Round 3 of the 2011 NFL Draft by Kansas City Chiefs out of Miami (FL).
