02Scheme fit
Ideal system

The Cardinals' offensive system typically features a spread RPO scheme with an emphasis on creating mismatches and exploiting open space.

H-backFullbackPower I-formation
Best role

Sherman projects as an immediate special teams contributor and short yardage/goal line blocker with the upside to develop into a reliable lead blocker in a run-heavy attack.

Wrong fit

He would be marginalized in an Air Raid system that prefers smaller, quicker backs and rarely utilizes a traditional fullback or H-back.

Sherman's size and run-blocking prowess make him a valuable asset in schemes that prioritize a physical ground game and special teams excellence.
