02Scheme fit
Ideal system

The Texans primarily operated a Cover-3 match scheme, emphasizing disciplined zone coverage and strong run support from their cornerbacks.

Boundary CBField CBNickel CB (occasional)
Best role

Initially a rotational boundary corner, he could develop into a starting shutdown corner with his athleticism and ability to play press coverage.

Wrong fit

A Fangio-style quarters scheme that demands extensive off-zone coverage and complex communication responsibilities might diminish his instinctive playmaking.

His blend of size, speed, and aggressive play style makes him a good fit for a physically demanding Cover-3 system.

04The evaluation

Selected #60 overall in Round 2 of the 2011 NFL Draft by Houston Texans out of Miami (FL).
